Taking 5-10 years off school?

<p>It sounds like a bad idea to me. If you’re going to take 10 years off you might as well just find the best job you can find and stay there for the rest of your life. It doesnt really make sense to save up thousands of dollars and then spend it on any school that late in life. </p>

<p>Not to mention, it will be EXTREMELY hard for you to get into any schools let alone top tier ones if you take that much of a break. They are going to take undergraduates straight out of a 2 year first. Also, right now you may think that you want to do this but in 5-10 years you might start to get comfortable,or worse you still cant afford to go, and then you realize that school is not a good idea. If this happens then you’re stuck with you AA degree probably working at a job that pays less than $20 an hour (unless you get lucky). Im sure if you dont have as much money as you say you do then you will get good FA at a state school. After, you graduate from there you can take a few years off and maybe go to a better school as a graduate. </p>

<p>Bottom Line: If you can go to school now DO IT! :)</p>
