Thanks. Finances have become critical on my end.
Good thoughts your way on your other accreditation.

Thanks, John. Hang in there. Remember . . . When the dust settles, you'll be standing up on your own accord.

Know someone here who does just that lol.
Environmental engineering would be a good choice. I can see the endless possibilities for that field-- especially here in California where we tend to stay ahead of the curve when it comes to protecting our resources.

Bah!! Wish I could go back to school already. No money and low financial aid FTL. The loans don't even cover enough.

I want my Mechanical Engineering degree! My friend had job offers for Rocketdyne and he's helping with the new shuttles that are going up to the moon and Mars.

Hang in there, Mike. Keep your eye on the prize. Things will eventually turn in your favor.

Thanks, Andy. I sure hope so. I'm starting to get impatient because I'm feeling left behind.

Mike . . . To lower the burden of the Cal tuition costs, have you considered going to a lesser school and then transferring back to Cal, at a later date? This could be a good solution for you?

I have thought about it actually... but main concern (fear rather) is that I'll lose my opportunity to graduate from Cal.

But I still need to talk more in depth with my counselor because I think that this is the route that I would most likely have to end up taking.

Do it, Mike. The goal is to get closer to you main target. I am very pleased to read that you have considered other options to further and better yourself.

Excellent! You realize that now. It's never too late.

At times, I wonder what the younger people are thinking about when they throw down sooooo much money into their cars. Yes! . . . Invest in your future, today, and tomorrow will yield many more options.
