I am attending Baker College. I will blog about my experiences class and student life. My experiences may be different from normal college students, because I am beginning school again 14 years after high school. I have four children and a husband outside of school. Follow me through my first year transition from being a stay-at-home mom, to becoming a full time college student.

I registered for spring classes today. When I picked up my rotation schedule and the list of open classes, I was angry. All the classes on my list to take were night classes. I didn't enroll in night school, and I hate that all my math classes are only offered at night now. Very angry and ready to transfer from the evil college, I talk with my guidance councilor. Yes, there is a reason for guidence councilors to exist. A very good reason in fact. She gave me two suggestions of alternate classes to take and they were during the day. I was very happy. One other class that I am required to take will be offered during the day next spring. That also is a relief. I get to substitute a class that I do not want to take for one that I can live through, and I don't have to take three night classes this spring. So now I am pretty satisfied with my schedule and no longer angry with the evil institution.
My good advice is to consult your guidance councilor even if you don't think there is a need. They offer great advice and will do what it takes to make sure you are content with your schedule. Even after the first few classes, if it isn't working out, make sure you let them know. They will be able to help.
My classes next quarter are Pre-Calculus, Creative Writing!!!, and American Literature I for a total of 13 credits. Less credits than this quarter, but it will fit into my financial aid.
