Dropping out

<p>I graduated high school in 2008. I immediately went to an exclusive private school in upstate New York, and withdrew in the spring semester because I was so depressed and couldn't find any social setting in which I was comfortable (despite making a lot of effort to do so). I moved home to Florida, went to community college, and assumed I would be majoring in International Affairs.</p>

<p>Fast forward to 2014, I still have two years of work left to do if I want to pursue this major, which I don't. I haven't learned anything, nothing stuck with me, and found that this major does not picque my interest and my university doesn't even have a program strictly for International Affairs. They have you pick classes from all different areas, which makes no sense.</p>

<p>I looked into changing majors to Real Estate. Unfortunately I don't have any of the prereqs completed because I never considered looking at a business major (dumb idea to not consider something real-world applicable). They're telling me I can't make this my major because I've had six terms post-secondary and have no prereqs completed, but I can make it a second major. I work full time for the state, and this job is my lifeline as it provides me health insurance and a steady, solid income. And I have a baby on the way. I can't just quit my job and go to school full time to pursue a double major, it's not an option for me. But it seems like they're giving me no other choice but forcing me to finish a major that I find completely worthless and uninteresting in order to achieve the real goal I want.</p>

<p>So it seems that I have no choice but to drop out. At this point I wish I never started school because I don't have any way to switch my course of study without spending twice the amount of money that I already have and adding over 5 years of study, just for a BA. It's really unfair, but I don't know what other option I have. At least I have this job, right? -.-</p>
