    Lightbulb thinking of going back to school?

    ive been thinking ever since the lab got hurt that i might want to go back to school to be a vet tech but i also know that i dont have the money either and i know there are grants and school loans but i dont want to get a loan again because i know they are a pain in the ass. i really have to do some thinking the next few weeks

    That can be solved, with a good search, and good networking.

    I got laid off and decided to go back to school. The community college here was/is giving free tuition to out of work county residents.

    Go to your local community college, take the placement tests, and fill out the FAFSA forms to see if you're eligible for any financial aid. Community college is cheap, and you may qualify for aid.

    i went to a community college before and got financial aid but also transportation for me is just the bus i have no car yet so thats another factor and also they dont offer any vet courses

    Vet techs make around $9.00 to $10.00 per hour.
