Any advice for a "mature" college student?

There are a lot more return students in graduate school right now. I think that more mature students, who have had some life experience make the best students and I'll bet that you'll do great! It is harder balancing home and school responsibilities though, so you'll have to figure out how that works best for you when you start. Congrats!

Bee, you are the last person I expected to hear something like this from, you have an incredible background. Just walk in there, smile, be yourself and you will have friends. I am older then you, a few years ago, I picked up some design and architectural drawing classes, this pass summer I became an EMT. Today's kids are great. They are fun and open, they just have terrible taste in music. Nothing at all like that great stuff we used to listen to.

I'm not sure I can give you any advice but I do want to congratulate you for going back. I admire that!
