So I got a phone call today I’ve been waiting for and was told that I have $20,000 and/or 135 weeks of school paid for. My last job was lost due to trade with China and I qualify for the Trade Act. I’m conflicted whether I should start soon and what classes to take. I started with marketing but quickly withdrew after 2 months. Wasn’t my thing.
The 20k is not cash. It goes towards schooling costs. I can keep a pell grant though.

Now that I love psychology, I’m teetering between it and drafting/modeling.

Start looking at programs that seem reasonable to you. Look at the requirements, compare them with where you’re at. Check out the courses. Which ones look more up your alley? Which can you see yourself doing?
I think you’d be great at either of the two. There really isn’t a wrong choice here.

I know. You are a good egg @Rhubot. I think you know where I’m heading.

I have so much experience in manufacturing, it would be a shame to waste it. I can draft from home too. BTW I LOVE Solidworks.

Seriously, you’re going to be great at whatever you choose. Don’t rush into a decision. Think about where you’ll be happiest.
