Many universities offer discounts to older ppl and you are still eligible to apply for grants (www.fafsa.ed.gov) and student loans.  Good luck going back to school as I have classes with a lady who is 70.

Sorry, not me.  Classmates.com is a web-site that can help you hook up with former classmates and teachers.  Their web address is:  http://www.classmates.com\n\nBest wishes.

talk to your school about that - some schools have alumni e-mail servers you can connect to. I have a friend who graduated from Harvey Mudd college and his e-mail is @alumni.hmc.edu

I don't think you are ever too old. People gradute from college at 77, people earn doctorates that late. Most community college vocational or business students are older students. In fact, most college faculty members like older students because they typically are more motivated to learn, understand why they are in college, and have the life experience to put what they learn into some perspective. There are lots of options for older learners, as well.\n\nCheck with your local community college, they will have lots of information and opportunities for more training or education.\n\nHere is an example of what many colleges and universities are offering for adult students:\nhttp://www.ithaca.edu/news/article.php?id=581\n\nCheck out the University College of the University of Maryland, set up strictly for adults:\nhttp://www.umuc.edu/\n\nBest wishes and go for it!!

You will be reading plenty for the next 40 years (or whenever you retire)!  However, I found "The First Days of School" by Harry Wong very helpful, as well as reading lots of accounts of beginning teachers.  Check out "Educating Esme" by Esme Raji Codell, especially if you might teach in a city.  It's, um...disillusioning.

It was the old name for a teacher's college.  My great grandmother graduated from one in 1917.

Not at all! Some of my best students are the older ones. \n\nTraditional students (the younger ones) tend to be intimidated by non-traditional students, and vice versa. But the students who are willing to see beyond age get the most from each other. A lot of my traditional students find that the non-trads are insightful and motivated, and they like being around students like that. \n\nAlso, the place I'm teaching at right now, more than half of the students are older than me (I'm 28). But they realize that age doesn't matter. \n\nOne more thing, I had a student who was 76 years old. He was fantastic! All of the students loved him. :)

That's impressive. The youngest teacher I've known was 37. My current teacher is 71. You must have started at a young age!

You didn't say how old you are but it is unlikely that you are too old. As to being in class with students who are younger than you, you will find that they will look up to you. Also, students who decide to go to college after they are no longer of traditional college age usually do better than the younger students because they are more serious and determined - also, they don't get so bogged down in extracurricular activities.\n\nJournalism students have to do one or more practicums - but I don't see how age will be any detriment to doing them successfully.\n\ns

use one of those sites that let you find the people you graduated with. im sure you heard of it , it's usually a popup.

A cute one is always hanging up baby pictures of the alumni and having everyone guess who is who.  You can number the pictures and have a sheet to pass around to those who want to play.\n\nYou could also get a description of the family lives, jobs, where they live, etc at this point in their life.  And then like the picture game, try to see if people can guess who ended up where :)

I didn't go to college until my mid 30's.  Haven't finished yet, as I was going very part-time for several semesters.  It is "weird" some days, being old enough to be their mom; but it's also fun!  Profs seem to appreciate the maturity and experiences we bring to the class.
