<p>Oaks and Marite: I did notice when looking through the spring course catalog for IU that a lot of the core classes were late at night, like from 5:30 to 8 pm. I knew I would be working part-time and going to school full-time but I hadn’t considered switching the two. Maybe I can find a position in the university–staff members get one course free per semester according to the lab tech I used to work under.</p>
<p>Tickle and hazel: It might also be possible for me to gain in-state status somewhere, but at least for IU it would take two years of living here without taking any classes before they would offer it. I don’t know if I’m still a resident of California, since I left three years ago, but I guess I could submit an application to UCLA and see.</p>
<p>Thank you everyone.</p>
