She wants to go to College in her 30 /40s

Is there a cut-off age when we're not supposed to better ourselves anymore? Whether she "needs" it or not is irrelevant. If she feels it would help her in any way, financially, intellectually, emotionally, whatever, and she can afford it, it's a good idea.

I have heard from Older sisters, older brothers say that "the age is just number." it means no matter do as u like. dont think of age. just do it what u want. And time to think too late for the festest time that means RIGHT NOW.

Age doesn't matter when in terms of education. Whether your age is 60 or 100 unless you want to go to college and take up bachelor's degree that doesn't matter.

Well, I believe that if this person is truly motivated to go to college, her age does not matter. I can cite the example that I heard of someone who has started studying at age 30, he became professor of cybernetics! I, too, now at the age of 37 years, and more on the side of forty, sometimes I get the idea of ??wanting to resume my studies to finish with a degree. But I can not do this for mainly economic reasons.

It's never too late to get a degree. In fact, there was a news about a man on his 70's who just graduated from college. And, he even finished 1st in class. That's determination. He can't really use his degree for any work anymore, but his purpose was for fulfillment. If your mom's friend is ashamed to be seen going to school at that age, she can try online schooling.

Hi silverfox. Well doing a bachelor's degree involves lot of things.. If you ask me for my personal advice, I would suggest her to do some professional courses instead of technical courses. If I was at her age I would not have gone for a bachelor's degree. But this is strictly my opinion. Anyways have a nice day ... -=SuperShames=-

In my opinion, age doesn't matter when it comes to attaining certain goals that anybody wants to accomplish. It is never too late for her to go to college and pursue her dream to have a bachelor degree. Its a dream come true for everybody to have a college diploma. Spending 4 years in college is nothing compared to the lifetime fulfillment or satisfaction that it will give her once finished with her course. I used to think of not going back to school because I needed to work to meet my personal obligations but I decided to go back when I was 24. At first I was shy and uncomfortable because I was thinking I'm far older compared to my classmates who are just around 16 but I got surprised when I've seen students who are also around my age. I also know some who are also around her age who are actually taking up their tertiary education in the same university where I'm in. Not really sure if they are just starting but I really do admire them for having the courage to go back to school.If I were her,I'll go to college the soonest time possible.

I have a good Friend who is already old and yet she still wants to study. She is a missionary (sister) at the same time but she still manage her time to inter college. I can not see any wrong in there in fact I enjoy her company because she knew a lot in life. I myself don't know the real reason why she choose to study but I know she enjoy what she is doing and I believe that she can do it. There is no designated age for studying if you are interested and you can sustain go for it.

Yes, I've met some people at the University who are at that age and still want to finish there course and I really admire them because I have met more people who wishes to finish a course even the short courses offered by TESDA just to have a diploma or at least a certificate. Another reason why she must pursue college degree is that it would make her feel fulfilled and no what its on the latter part of her life and age doesn't matter to pursue your education.

Education is a continuing process.If education is the key to success why not?As long us your comfortable with it.Age doesn't matter in terms of education there's no limit and your passion is to learn more.Nowadays education is the most important profession, so don't be afraid to send in college.Whatever age you are now continue study to meet you objective in life.

Education has no age limit.Good for her, she will start for college.I'll think twice if I will start for kindergarten in my 30s.I had a classmate and she finished college at age 42.And she is not alone who graduated at that age.But of course,she need to break the barrier of age gap.

In my opinion, she should pursue her bachelor's degree even though she is in her 30's or 40's. In the Philippines, we have a grandmother who graduated from high school at the age of 50 and even planning to go to college. So education don't have age requirement or age limit. It would be a self- fulfillment on her part to finish her bachelor's degree. It would also be a feeling of pride that at her age she did something to better her future.

In my opinion, she should pursue taking up her bachelor's degree even though she is in her 30's or 40's. In the Philippines, we have heard on the news person who graduated from high school at the age of 50. Having an education doesn't have age requirement or age limit. Even though she lives comfortably now, finishing her bachelor's degree would be a great fulfillment on her part. It would be a pride that even at her age, she did something to achieve her goal.

I think in my opinion that there is no age limitation when it comes to going to college or going for your bachelors degree, and even if you are that old and you still want to get it done then I think you should go for it, and if you are uncertain then just ask yourself why you wanted to do it in the first place, but still its never too late to get something done. I'd definnetly say go for it! :)

For me, education is the key to everything. its not that bad if you take your bachelors degree or go to school at the age of 30 or 40's because i had classmate who go to college around 40 or more and inspire me more as young ones. There is no limit regarding of age for college student or even who wants to took her or his bachelors degree.. Everyone have rights what, where, when to enter college.

For me its not yet late for her to go to college. Because age is not requirement in going to college. And its a goo sign that she have that thingking in going to college. Because having a degree is not only for you to have a work in the future but for you to have the knowledge. And thats the only treasure you have that you can keep for life time.

I can only say to her that its not to late for her to achieve her dream. Everyone of us have a chance to do want we know is right for us. attending college at her age is not late if she have a fighting spirit and us you said you she is very comfortable with her decision. Her stress is causes him mentally she feel uncomfortable what she are doing at her age, she like a new environment to see and to communicate with. Her stress give him a positive outcome because she want to achieve something. Don't worry about your mother friend because I know she can do it and she will be successful about it. No matter what will be the result of it she know that she do her best to achieve this things for her self and this is the one way she give time to herself.

In my opinion its never to late to go for college. Because there's no limit in going to college.As long as you are willing to study then your free to go to college. Actually thirty to forty years old are those people who are mature and willing to study hard. They are more focused on their goals and they are more motivated to learn.

For me, finishing a degree is a greatest achievement. Age doesn't matter. If I am her daugther, I will encourage my mom to go to school and finish a bachelor's degree. I will help and support her for whatever her plans are. Education is important, and I want her to be satisfied after taking that degree. It is not too late for you mom's friend to enter schooling. Still, decision will depend on her if she really want to continue her future plan.

It is not too late for her to take her bachelor's degree. There's no law that sets limit on until how old does a person can educate himself. Besides, taking that step will not only help her to be equipped with knowledge but also to seize opportunities in the future. Of course, preparations would be done especially if she has job and her own family in which one of the things that should be observed is proper time management. I've already met some students who are a lot older than me, and they have been successful in doing everything when it comes to their studies.
