Panic

I had a panic attack today after going to the social work orientation. They talk about what a great program this is, and I believe it, but they also talk a lot about transferring courses to the university after. So for those of us that are not wanting to go onto the bachelor, it seems kind of concerning. The bachelor will definitely give a higher pay grade, and access to more jobs, but I am pretty sure that for what I want to do, the diploma will be fine. And there is always time later in life to go back and do a bachelor. The other thing was too is I think an admissions lady gave me some misinformation. She told me that I could apply to a university and skip the first 2 years and go straight to the social work part. I'm going to double check this just in case, but I don't think it's true. So anyways I had a break down about it.. but after remembering why I didn't choose to do a university program (Most of the unis in the area have the child and youth program at the university, so it is very focused on that, which pigeon holes you in a different way), I remembered the reason that I chose this program.

I think at this point I'm hoping that what she said wasn't true, because I'll feel like I've wasted time. And if J decides to go back home after school like we'd talked about if he gets a job, I don't want to be living in Edmonton by myself for 1-2 years. So at this point I'm hoping that I was right that the diploma was the best option for me, and just stick with it.  I guess it's another wait and see kind of thing.
