I think I understand. I'm supposed to post a thread and wait for a response. Well, here goes something.
I recently was accepted at a community college here in Denver. I went to the library to get some pre-college material and the librarian suggested this book, "The Adult Student Guide" and it's helped me very much! Mostly with my fears and anxiety about my age. I just turned 49 and I'm really scared. I have to apply for FAFSA and have already applied for COF.
The most important question I have is "How do you pick a major?" I don't want to waste time and money on a career I may not enjoy! I've heard of a Career Assesment Test, is that a good start?
Going off-line now. Will check back. Thank You.]]>

As prospective adult students are concerned, I'm definitely on the young end (turning 24 in about a month). I attended college for four years but didn't end up graduating, for a number of reasons. One of those reasons was that I had no direction, no sense of what my major would wind up being, and what I really wanted to do with my life. (Up to a point, I'm still working on that.) The second reason has had to do with my state of mind. I suffer from depression, and it caused my to leave college twice, once in 2006 in the middle of the year, and once at the end of the 2008 year when I left that school, the University of Toronto, for good. As well, my issues made it much harder for me to get my work done, and in my final year I wound up failing a few classes.

So, in the year since I left school, I've been working and trying to deal with my emotional issues. I've been in therapy, and recently I came to the conclusion that it's time for me to go back to school and get my B.A. Having made that decision, there are some issues to resolve.

First of all, as I said, I went to the University of Toronto. I am not Canadian and no longer live in Canada. I don't have the resources to pay international fees to go to school in Canada again. My only viable option for going back to school is the City University of New York. I'm worried that what credits I did earn at Toronto won't end up transferring to CUNY (especially in light of the fact that Canadian credits seem to work a little differently from U.S. credits).

Second of all, even if some credits do transfer, I'm worried about being accepted to CUNY. My grades in Toronto, as I've mentioned, were not good. With adult students I hear that there's a sort of unofficial "statute of limitations" on one's grades, if enough time has elapsed. But I'm looking to go back to school as soon as next fall. That's a period of only two years. It's not enough time to get the life experience/accomplishments that I've heard admissions officers look for in adult students. I've only just dealt with my depression to the point where I feel ready to go back.

Any insight on these concerns would be greatly appreciated.]]>

While students of all income levels have been awarded Pell Grants, the majority of money goes to those with household incomes of under $30-35,000 a year.

The maximum award for the 2009-2010 school year is $5,350. The maximum amount an individual receives depends on costs, income, and full- or part-time status. (The award for '08-'09 is $4,731, while '07-'08 was $4050.) The average award for 2009-10 is expected to be $3150.

The amounts available to individual students vary each year, depending on what the US Congress approves for program funding.

If you haven't filled out your Free Application for Federal Student Aid for 2009-2010, you should do it now. Pell Grant money is generally "first-come, first-served," though they do process applications year-round.
