WOW that’s expensive…

moneyTB on going back to school…

So I went to Montgomery County Community College or Mont. Co. and signed up for a history class. It ended up setting me back around $340 dollars. Is this normal over here? Supposedly the fee is $100 per credit or something like that. Maybe less not too sure. Back in California the tuition for the Community College I went to was $13 per credit… MAJOR leap in tuition I must say.

(At least the placement tests went well. I was surprised I did so well on my Math and English considering I haven’t been in school since I was 21… So now I get to skip 2 Math courses and 2 English courses.)

And another question to all the PA/Philly residents or East Coast people in general. When I sign up for a transfer program to a university do I get considered before other students? Or is that just wishful thinking? And if I keep my grades up will I get a scholarship for sure? Or is that a maybe?

It sucks being out of school for so long. But feels great being back.
