<p>I’ll take that a step further. What is the matter with graduating in ten years? Some lower income students find it necessary to take courses AND work to find their college costs. I applaud them for graduating no matter how many years it takes.</p>
<p>One can take a Pell for 12 semesters…and I personally agree with kat…so what if the student graduates in six years instead of four. So what?</p>
<p>Bel…why is this important to you anyway? You have clearly stated you have very young kids. You don’t see any value in traditional colleges (per the numerous threads you have started with articles that diss them), and you definitely are not Pell eligible.</p>
<p>I sure wish I understood why you feel the need to diss colleges repeatedly…by finding articles that do so.</p>
<p>Perhaps the college landscape will change in more than the several years until your kids are ready for college…if you deign to let them even go.</p>
