Ive got a situation with my girlfriend, need advice.

Well, another thing you could do, would be to go there and work for this semester.

Like DL said...apply for aid in the spring...work hard this semester and save as much money as you can. Then...you will be set for the next semester of school.

I would definetely have to work this semester, its too late to register anywhere in Dallas. My best bet is to register for next spring. She is willing to support me until I get a job which will be easy there. What are the junior colleges and universities, dread?

If you do move, I suggust you go ahead and work this semester for the money - just in case something happens and you have to move back, you need money for that or anything else that comes up.

Dallas specifically, or areas surrounding Dallas?
there will be quite a few, so I'll want to narrow it down.
You want engineering, right?

Go with the chick my man --- the reward outweighs the risk

Dave to me it doesn't matter how long you have known her. If you look deep inside yourself and you know you really love her GO!! Take the advice of myself and some of the others on here who are older and have made mistakes in their life. You don't wanna look back and say, what if I woulda.....

Good luck in whatever you decide bro.

In Dallas:

Southern Methodist University
http://www.usnews.com/usnews/edu/college/directory/drglance_3613.htm

decent school, secomd tier, fairly expensive, but you should get a decent, reputable-enough degree there

University of Texas - Dallas
http://www.usnews.com/usnews/edu/college/directory/drglance_9741.htm

Of course, decent, but not as recognizable as Austin campus - only makes a difference if you stay in State. Not as good - third tier, but it's cheap and you get the UT name!


As far as I know, those are the major universities. I am sure there are community colleges and alternative "colleges" out the asssss, but I wouldn't count on getting a decent degree from them, which I assume, is your ultimate goal.

How many hours do you have?

 

[-SD-]

I would need a junior college like ACC for a semester or two before I shell out big money because I think Im going ot go into Information technology instead of engineering. I have 45 credit hours, sophomore.

Dude 1 month???

Ok , im not going to bore you with the horror stories of friends that have fallen in love and found out within a few months that it was just heartburn...

Hey man if youre the type that can pick up easily and start a life over somehwere else then go ahead. But I cannot even begin to tell you of the horror stories..

I myself moved in with my ex of 2 years , I was kicking and screaming the whole way. 3 months after we moved in she turned psycotic on me. I moved out and ended it shortly after that. Point im making is even after 2 years I didnt know the girl all that well to move into her.

Unless you guys were friends, and I mean longterm prior to the relationship, then no way Id say rethink it man...
