help with tuition

I am a current M-Tec student (a SUPERIOR school I might add) and though not on disability, I do have health issues that make working away from home difficult.

I checked with Vocational Rehabilitation in my state and they have so far invested in me about $7000 in order to retrain me for a MT career. I had been a school teacher.

Check with them, you might be surprised what they can do. They paid my entire tuition, bought me a Dell, bought supporting software and texts, etc....

A real godsend. I otherwise would have been unable financially to attend M-tec.

Let me know if you have any questions!

It's not all tuition fees
The tuition fees were about $2500 or so... the rest is supplies. Guess I should've said that to begin with. oops! Still a big investment. I also bought a couple upgrade packages so I could've done it for less.

I only have until the end of this week to pull out if I want to. Now I'm having my doubts about whether I'll get a job at it or not? I feel like I should finish it and hope for the best but that's $4500 out of my pocket with not much to show for it if I don't.
