Congratulations Doctor! I am at the 10 year mark plus the Covid situation, broke my foot. and trying to work a bunch of part time jobs to make it... there are days I want to give up 🆙

Thank you for sharing your story! I am in my mid 30s and sometimes have wondered if it is too late to get a PhD as other students in my program are in their 20s. I also worry about getting a job after. I am glad you think it was worth it! :) Congrats!

[@richelleclark834]

Congrats on your PhD journey. Your older age is a blessing because you have more life experience that will help you better navigate your classes and research. Yes you will find a job after school and it might be in the private sector that needs your critical thinking and research skills. Thank you for watching my video and I wish you continued success. You’ve got this!

[@richelleclark834]

Hi. It is not too late! You are in your prime. Go after that PhD if that is what you want. You have so much more life experience and untapped knowledge as an older student. And you will find out there will be many people your age in the PhD program. You got this!
