Cool - A Front is Moving In| E.T. Eventing |
| I'm trying to make sure I keep my options open and since I already applied to colleges I'm not sure if I should accept and then defer a semester to try trades or go straight into it in the summer, or what. The whole housing thing complicates it so much more and it's driving me nuts. |

| The downside was he had to travel out of state frequently for months at a time |

| My former stepfather was an orbital welder who did contract work and made absolute bank. The work was hard on him though. I don't know where he's at now, but he was still working into his 60s |

| Trades are in dire need of people I will say. I was a certified MAG welder for the company I worked for and it was fun and paid very well |

| Ven - see I visited a nicer trades x artisan school and liked it. It's just now I'm concerned that even if I did like physical work, that I'd be trapped in my field when I'm older and my body doesn't function as well. |

| I'm just concerned about wasting time - 2 years doing gen ed is a lot of wasted $$ and exploration time |
| Stormsong Manor |
| As someone who works for a university, I also would not be upset about my own kid going to trade school instead. It's just so expensive and no guarantee of a job. |

| Ven - thing is I applied with the intention of going out of state. So do you think I could do that going to a Uni doing just gen eds and then declare later, or transfer to a different one? |
| Angels angels |
| Of course my mare decided she likes a stud that is super expensive lol |

| Knock out gen ed credits at community college, then transition to a four-year school when you figure out your major |
| E.T. Eventing |
| Anyone feel like sharing advice? - currently feeling super confused about what I'm even doing anymore; I applied to some colleges but am so lost and don't know if I'm making the right moves. I feel like every option is the wrong one and whatever I like won't make me financially stable or even if I go to college for financial stability I won't choose the right thing. |
