Hello everyone. I am beginning a long journey and I am gathering all the resources I can to educate myself.
I am trying to overcome alot of doubt and am seeking some advice and personal expirence. I live in a small town, attend a community college, my parents have no degrees. I live with my mother on a small farm. She is on fixed income. I am enrolled in college and was excepted into the nursing program and soon realized it was not for me. The highlight of my life is working with animals. I live for it. As sad and dirty and disturbing it can be it gives me peace.
My goal is to become a vet. I am transfering to Eastern Kentucky University next fall to earn my Bachelor in Science. I plan to apply to every Vet school I can after that.
My question is...
#1 Cost. My family literally has no money for college. I am attending on grants. Is it possible for me to get loans to pay for this?
#2 The last year and 1/2 my grades have been A's and B's. Before that.. they were not so good. I have been spinning my wheels attending this community college since I've graduated high school. Now that I have direction I am motivated. I love Science and am excelling in those courses. Will my bad grades prevent me from having a chance?
Thanks in advance for your replies.
