I'm 28 and thinking about switching gears and start college to have a profession, not just a job. Is 28 too late to start?

Never, you are never to old to learn. In fact, 28 is very young. You'll do good. To give you some encouragement: there were a old lady in her 70s or 80s just passed high school last year.

It's never too late to go back to college. Many schools have continued education programs for applicants that have taken a break between high school graduation and college.

Its never too late to get educated. Its better late then never. My dad's 46 and he's taking classes. I read in Jet magazine a lady was in her 70s or 80s and just got her degree, and another older lady even got voted for the Queen of her university. Go for it, and best wishes!

No, it is never too late to start college. I have read stories about 70 something year olds getting their college degree because they wanted to achieve a life long dream.

Not at all. You are in your prime.....Now is the perfect time to go back to school. I speak from experience. I am 26 and it is absolutely the best decision I have ever made. When you go back at this age, you have a totally different, more mature outlook on everything. You will will fly through it. Go for it! I wish you the best of luck! I hope this has helped you.

No, the average person changes careers every 5-7 years.
