That's kinda what I've been thinking lately. I've taken breaks from school before, so it's not like if I start back I'll necessarily be committing to 4 consecutive semesters. Also, with the way costs keep going up, I really worry that the longer I wait, the less affordable it will be. Like, I saw the tuition they're charging now where I got my B.A., and it's almost double what it was when I started there less than 10 yrs. ago!
