worth pursuing a field like medicine, law, or psychology since they require graduate degrees to really enter the workplace?

Absolutely yes...if you have the drive and ambition. My former wife has taken part-time classes for over 10 years and now holds a Bachelor's and a Masters. ALL done with only 1-2 classes per semester. Now she is glad she continued with it even though it took awhile. She now makes over 6 figures instead of being a teller at a bank.

Yes, it is worth going to college at any age. The more education you have these days means more income over a lifetime. It used to be 10 or 20 years ago that an individual could find a good paying job without a college education. Even now, some areas of office work requires some form of college education when it did not 10 or 20 years ago.

Absolutely, it's never too late (or early) to get ahead start on the credits they'll need. Besides if it's something that they would really like to pursue, it won't matter how long it'll take to get there because in the end it will be worth every ounce of energy, time, and every single penny. Good luck :-)

Yes, without question. A degree is a degree and it indicates a completion of something to an employer. Go for it, no matter how long it takes and don't get sidetracked. Good Luck!

Yes it is worth it. It may take longer, but in the long run- where will you be without the degree. In ten years you will have wished you stuck to it. You will have more options and choices in your life with the degree.

Some employers would welcome someone who is trying to study to get ahead. I would not let college get ahead of work. When you're at work, concentrate on work. When you're at school, concentrate on school. Try to find balance in your life.
