School House Rock!

When we talk about school, we are not talking about the kids.  We are talking about your extraordinary decision to go back to school.  First, let me say, "Good Job!  Way To Go!! You Are Amazing!!!"  Second, I want to offer a little assistance on when and how to find time for classes and homework.  This is coming from a person who has been in your shoes.  

Talk to your family.  If you have made the decision to go back, talking to your husband was probably done right off the bat.  It's not just you this change is going to effect, it is going to change the whole family.  The hubby and kids are going to have to pitch in more and schedules will need to be rearranged.

Get with an advisor.  This will help you figure out exactly what you want to go back for and what classes you need so you do not waste your time with unnecessary classes.  This will also help you narrow down if online, night or weekend classes will work best.  You could even get an elaborate course schedule to keep you on track each semester.

Write it all down.  Once you get your first syllabus go through your calendar and planner and write down all your due dates for assignments, tests and even days off.  Schedule in times you see in the future for studying, reading and homework.
And finally,
GOOD LUCK!!!
