starting college at a later age?

[PHiuR]

are there any people who start college at the age of 22 or older? undergraduate freshmen yr that is...and if they do. do they get dorm rooms? (with freshmens (17/18 yr olds)?

depends where you go... my school now doesnt have separate dorms except the 21+ building... i think they try to put you with your age group for a roommate

I'm starting in the fall and I'll be 21 then (turn 22 shortly after in October).

I'm waiting till I retire to further my education. I'll have more time then. Hell, I'll go with my kids when they get old enough. Wouldn't that be fun.

I restarted college at 29. I dropped out the first time.

I'm 27 and in the second half of my freshman year. I already have a wife, a house, two cars, two motorcycles a full time job, a part-time job and I go to school full-time. Living in the dorms would be death upon me because I'd party all the time!

Seriously though, school can't get over fast enough for me. I absolutely despise it but sadly, far too many jobs today depend on a degree rather than all out knowledge and/or skills.

I started when I was 24 or 25. I have been going off and on for the past 9 years. I have about 5 classes left before I graduate with a B.S.. I live at home and commute to school. Your never to old, but sometimes previous life commitments makes it hard to go back.

I started college at age 37. I could not live in a dorm room cause I had a teenaged daughter at the time!
