[quote=Anonymous]I'm back at school in my 50's (for a TESOL graduate certificate program -- about half of a masters degree) and it gets old fast. A number of older students started the program with me but I am the only one who will complete it, in large part because I had no expectation of this being a sound financial decision. Besides the financial end, consider how much you like working with much younger students on group projects because there will be a lot of it. Many of the older students really struggled with this aspect. Other challenges include learning new technology and more mundane things like hunting down my immunization records from 1970 (a state requirement to submit them if you are a student). [/quote]
