I'm 57 and getting ready to go back to school. It's shocking how many people have, flat out, told me that I am too old and that I should have done it when I was 20. One person actually said to me that I have no business going back to school at my age. I got so discouraged that I packed up all my books to donate them. So, I got on KZfaq, and started searching for people my age who are going back to school, and I found this video!! I immediately unpacked my books and put them back on the shelf. Thank you soooooo much for sharing your story. It revived my will to carry on. There will always be age discrimination. But, I would rather tackle that WITH a degree than without, despite the negative nellies and nay sayers. ❤❤❤. If you want to go to school, do it. Let's do this!!! 😊

I'm 70 years old and attend school at my local community college.

I went back to for my Bachelor's Degree at the age of 37. I am 1.5 years in and so excited for graduation in 2.5 years!

These are type of people I wanna be friends with at school

I dropped out and felt i failed in life but this gives encouragement to go back to college.

Good for her! I'm 53 and working on my masters.

I never knew there was such thing as too old for college. My parents are in their 40s and I wish they could get their GED and go to college so they won't have to work these hard labor jobs. Congrats to anyone who decides to better themselves no matter what age.

My god. . . The strength of this woman 😢

That’s my grandma

Here iam at 32 y/o crying searching for a vlog on someone who has returned to school at 30s hoping to find some encouragement. First video i come accesos is her story. I never went to highschool and i can relate when she stated going back to school has alwsys been her dream. I want to continue where i left off to feel proud of my self and quit setting up myself for failure because im not. I will call this min and sign up to adult school ❤

This made me cry. I am 30 and going for my bachelors . I can totally relate when she says she doesn't belong because her age. I get that a lot. I try to ignore it and focus on the dream ahead. Thank you for sharing your story.

You're never to old! The lovely woman who saved my life grew up in the great depression era, got her degree at the age of 50+, and retired at 75. She was my guardian angel and had she not been there for me I wouldn't be here now. You're never too old, and someone out there is waiting and depending on you to grind though and meet with them after your success.

I dropped out back in 2004 and I’m going back in a couple of weeks for Spring 2022 Time to finish this

Good for her 😊 I wish her much success..and her daughter is looking down and smiling and I'm sure she's very proud of her mama 😁

Am starting my high school this September at 33, am very nervous! But this video gave me much courage now.

I’m 47. Graduating with my associates degree next week. I’ve been in college with 3 of my kids. I’m on to my bachelors I’ll finish that when I’m 50 and my youngest graduates high school. I’ll. Still have 3 kids in college then... I’m a school bus driver. I LOVE my job. But... I need a retirement so. I’ll follow this dream and do the hard work to graduate. For them to prove it’s worth it and to prove it to myself... never too late. It’s not easy

This story put a fire in me and a tear in my eye at 50.

I am 28 years old i am currently going to my local community college part-time and i do sometimes feel like an old man in a young people environment but i feel like i need to accomplish what i always wanted to do in life which is to gradute college with a bachelors degree which i hope to accomplish in a few years. It's truly never too late to go back to school and accomplish your dreams.

It's never too late!! I'm 14 and starting 3rd grade in August after dropping out for 7 years

We need more range of people in college

Wow, powerful. ❤ I’m 38 getting ready to go back to school, still picking up the pieces from the grief of losing a family member, and my youngest child is also high support needs. I’ve been having feelings of doubt, and thoughts of “what am I thinking?!?” This is the video I didn’t know I needed.

Your daughter is definitely proud of you because you’re so courageous !

I will be 39 next month, have 5 children and always regretted not going to college. She is such an inspiration. LIfe is so hard and you can see her perseverance. I wish I had that. I hate where I am but you can never go back ...

Shes proud of you mama, your grandboy too and many others you don't know. Well done.

You are a brave women..i hope you continue your journey..your daughter is proud of the women you've become ❤❤

This video is a sign for me. I'm on a similar journey. On a grief journey returning to work middle-aged. I felt low about my age and my chances. I needed to see this. Thank you.

Omg this made me cry, im so happy for her.

This is too cool! 😎 It is never too late to get your education.

I needed this! God bless this lady ❤

Milanca would be sooo proud of you!!!

I am so glad I saw this video. I was in a online college but my housing situation and family issues tore me down and took me out of the game. But now my situations has changed and I am in a better mind set to go back to continue on with my educational journey and complete the goals I set for myself. 🙌🏾

Good for her. I feel the same way… I don’t belong. This lady is an inspiration 👏❤️

This is so beautiful ❤️

I am 56 and I back to college I feel weird because I am the oldest but God know it my dream Amen

Beautiful! Congratulations!

Beautiful.

You're never too old to go to school or go back to school. Never give up on your dreams! I'm so happy to see this video and see people in the comments going back or considering going back to school. I hope if there's a perceived barrier blocking anyone from pursuing their dream, please know that if you have a breath in you, you can do it. Many blessings to you all!

It's never too late to chase your goals!:)

An inspiration. Thanks for sharing.

My heart ❤️ 🥺

Great woman

I am so proud of you

I have been wanting to go back to School this year. I'm terrified as I would be going at it alone, and being 30. I'm still figuring it out, i have anxiety and that just complicates things.

Good for you . Never to late

Proud of her!

And now I’m crying

Great Video. God bless yhe gd people on earth. Age is just a number

I'm 63 and have been going to school and taking classes off and one for over 30 years. In 2 years, I can go for free on a space available situation and hope to finish a Bachelors. I have over 100 hours total and unfortunately many of those are scattered to different areas of study.

Omg congratulations 🎊 👏 she look so young 😍

50 with a AA and now on my way to a BA😊

It's never too late to go back to school, unfortunately some people don't agree but it's never too late. You might face challenges if you're trying to obtain employment and internships but don't let that stop you.

I love her, I wish she was my mum

She’s proud of you

PERHAPS OLDER STUDENT CAN CREATE SOME ORGANISATIONS FOR THEIR OWN INTEREST AND CREATE SOME ADULT SCHOOLS

I’m trying to get another degree at USC

Well my mom went to college in her 30s

Im 46 and the only reason i would go to college would be to bring some conservatatfism to the campus. I own my own business and graduated from the university of hard nocks.

Rodney dangerfield it.

omg who cares about age when it comes to learning and an education, who cares what other people think, if they cant understand it then they aren't smarter enough to understand. our greatest minds don't just stop thinking when they turn a certain age that others are critical of, ridiculous

🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾

If old people are going to university to get a job after a long work gap they are in for a rude awakening. I feel sorry for their being garnished.

No it’s not it’s a waste of money and is ridiculous
