Even though I'm pro-education, there's a glut of degrees out there, regardless of the ranking of the colleges. This translates to the under-employment of millennials where their degrees don't often provide sufficient return for their investment. Relative to your situation, in order to take care of a family, work part time and go to school full-time, you'll have to peel back your sleep to around four to five hours since the better the college, the greater the competition and work load.

MIT costs around $70K+/annum. Ivy league around $50K+. It's possible to get a full ride scholarship but a 4.0 GPA usually won't cut it, whether for admission or full ride. As a way to gauge your current abilities, take the SAT or ACT.

Frankly, if I were in your situation, I'd shoot for a trade like electrician since they can't be replaced by AI. The BLS is predicting a job growth rate of 9%.

Can't get out of job if you're coding the AI :doge:
