By Franklin Skribbit


Returning to school after years or even decades of hiatus can be terrifying. You are at best a minimum of a decade older than the kids who are entering college for the first time. Sure, you've lived life, learned a lot and you're wiser, if a little worse for the wear, but you never did get around to finishing your degree.

Increased Productivity and Memory

If you are the type of person that is constantly doodling on the side of your notes in class you may have a future in graphic design. Any company or business that plans on being successful needs a graphic designer to be able to create marketing products for them. Their logo has to be timeless and represent everything the company or business is working for. It can be a difficult job to create something completely new out of nothing and businesses are willing to pay well for it if you have the necessary education and portfolio proving yourself worthy of the position.

While many Americans find a way to make a suitable living without obtaining a degree, many employers prefer for their employees to have at least a Bachelor's Degree. In addition to that, a degree frequently means that you automatically qualify for a higher pay grade and additional perks that may not be afforded to employees without a degree.

Great photographers do not need a good camera, but can take a great picture even on an old and non-professional camera. If you are the type of person that enjoys the challenge and does it frequently, you may be a good candidate to be hired as a professional photographer. More than half of photographers are self- employed, but there are many positions as photojournalists, or scientific and industrial photographers that you could get if you have a degree in the arts.

Your body also benefits from a short nap during the middle of the day. Studies have shown that vital organs like the heart are healthier when people take a break to sleep during the afternoon.

This is a very specialized type of art that you cannot teach yourself. As the world of animation has grown, so has the technology that comes with it. While pursuing a degree in animation or multimedia art you will be taught how to use this technology and with practice you will be able to put together a portfolio of excellently executed multimedia art.

Make Up for Lost Sleep

How Do I Get Started?

Teacher

Speak to the school's financial aid officers to find out what grants and loans you may be qualified for. Your next stop should be an academic advisor. They can help you build a class schedule and academic plan around your already busy life. Once you have a plan, stick to it. It may take you longer, but the journey, and the degree waiting at the end, are worth it!
