I enrolled myself in a community college to take several credits to save money. My idea, take as many credits as possible from a community college then transfer over to a 4-year university-- saves a couple thousand in the end.
Yeah, well. I enrolled but had to drop out before I even started. Transmission on my car died and so now the 3,000 I saved up for school is bye bye. I feel ****ty that I can't go back to school this semester. I have already been out of school for a year, eh. I'm not even sure I'll be going back next semester either- might be moving out of state.
So now I'm back to square one really. I want to get a BA in Elementary and Special Education. However, I also want to take some business management, sociology, religious studies, multicultural...I hope I can take some classes as electives eh? Or maybe a major and a minor perhaps? No idea. I suppose I should begin by first deciding which university to sign away my life to. :P
Any advice to offer would be great.

shadha-
