Congratulations..you are SO close and I know at times it probably seemed like it took forever to get here, but here you are!

Now you get to put all of that wonderful knowledge to work helping people. :yes:

Do what you gotta do!  If I could afford it, I would go back full time.  Going part-time and working just doesn't sound appealing to me.

Going to school and working sucks period.  I did my whole masters program that way, and I've never been so burned out as I was when it was all over with.  :yes:

Actually, grad school is so much different for me than undergraduate school was...my priorities, focus & time management skills have all been fine-tuned over the past ____ years. :smile:

I think you'd be surprised, kimmi! Another facet to consider, full-time in graduate school is 6 credits (2 classes) vs. 12 credits (4 classes) in undergraduate school. Much easier to maintain, IMHO.

And for the "affordability", PHEAA is my best friend (for life!). :smile:
