             Being a mother, wife, father, and husband is a full time job. Imagine also working and attending college full time. Many women and men are living the life and making that dream come true by attending college. Going back to college and better their selves is a wish many people dream about.
             Many types of people return to college because they have a passion for a higher paying job or a more self satisfying job. This could be anything from being a lawyer, doctor, and nurse to a teacher, social worker, or a small business owner.
             Many times adults return to college because the place the currently work at provides tuition reimbursement and it would enable them to move up in the company. Or they are just fed up with the company all together. They just have no options of getting a better job without an education, so they turn to college.
             Some adults return to college because they didn't have the opportunity to attend started college straight out of high school because they had to take time off for many reasons. It could have been a child, marriage, job, money, or even no transportation. There are many reasons why so many young people are not able to start college fresh out of high school. They try to set goals for themselves to return to college by a certain age.

             One circumstance that tends to push people away from college is finances. Individuals interested in returning to college don't understand there are several kinds of financial aid available for students from scholarships to grants or even student loans. The great advantages to student loans are that they tend to be financed at a very low interest rate. However, if no one has ever taken the time to explain that or they have never taken the time to look into it they would never know.
             Another big issue that disables people from starting college is their current job status. They may work at a place where their schedules aren't set and they can't set certain schedules aside for school because they have no idea what their work schedule will be like.
