Started back to college this semester...it’s only been 19 years, lol! I’m excited, but apprehensive at the same time. Anyone else gone back to finish their degree after 40?

Aaron,
I started my Masters at 31, now at 32 I'm just a little less than halfway done. Not going to sugarcoat it, it was (still is) hard going back to school after 11 years. The work itself seems easier than it did back then I was a teenager, maybe it is easier since I'm doing it online, however motivating myself to do the work and finding time with family and a demanding career can be a challenge.

Congrats to you. I did it the hard way. Changed majors after 3 years, Biology to Computer Information Systems. Took me 6 years total. Went on to become a CPA, then insurance adjuster, then opened a lodge on Lake Fork, then became a custom home builder. My point is, with age comes wisdom. I'll bet you have a better idea of what you want to do than most coming out of college. Good Luck.
