This might be the wrong place for this but idk who else to ask & it feels like a stupid question so here it is.

I am 25, wanting to go back to college (blew 4 years already, long story) now that I feel like I can handle it & have a sense of direction. I'm concerned it isn't going to be doable now with trump, if I apply for financial aid and it gets gutted, idk the prospect of applying to college during this shit political landscape feels pointless. my question is, is it? Would it be a bad move or waste of time & energy to get into a college?

Go ahead and start now. Im 34 and have been wanting and had the ability to go back for years, and if I would have, I'd be way done. I just started this year, and I'm mad I didn't go sooner. The political landscape is going to be bad the rest of our lives. You just gotta roll with the punches and dont let shit you cant control get you down. Never give up! You got this. Its never a waste of time if your working on yourself

Tysm! The roll with the punches philosophy seems like the best way to put it. I will probably be mad at myself too if I don't take the shot now. I appreciate your insight, friend
