I can’t afford to not work. So how could I possibly quit to go back to school?
Any suggestions/advice??

What we discovered was that his job with Verizon pays for the on line degree programs though University of Phoenix on line. He’s working full-time and doing his school work at night. As long as he does not get lower than a “C” in his classes, Verizon will continue to pay for it. He also only takes 2 classes at one time, and will have an associates in business in 18 months.
I know that both Verizon and Sprint offer to pay for school for their employees. It might be worth looking into getting a job with a company that would help pay for school.
I just graduated from college last year, and I know that many of my friends worked for UPS or FedEx to help pay for school because they have some type of education program refund.
I knew one person who went back full time. She was able to get a lot of financial aid, worked while she was in school, and was able to finish. You may want to check into financial aid–when you include loans, it is possible to go back full time, even with bills to pay.
Wish U all the best
