No, I'm not going to convince you to go to real estate school. (Although if you do want to go, but don't want to go alone, call me. I can go for free, and I'd be willing to go back, if for no other reason just to marvel at how much they cram in your head that you never use.)
Anoka Ramsey Community College, with campuses in Coon Rapids and Cambridge (Not Anoka OR Ramsey, surprisingly!) is now offering 50% tuition for the unemployed.
Being unemployed in this market can be terrifying. Perhaps your line of work is something that is being phased out. You've worked the same job for years and aren't confident you can "do anything else". Or maybe you just have the time that you have always wanted to spend on furthering your educational goals.
Now is that time. Tuition costs go from $119.87 a credit to $59.94 a credit! Currently it is just being tested for spring of 2009, but may be expanded into a longer term. You can still qualify for financial aid, or set up payment plans for the tuition.
There are many certificate and degree options, and both classes on campus and online are eligible.
To find out more, visit either campus, or call to register for a Workforce Retraining Express session by calling 763.433.1410.
