How does it look if I quit my job to go to college full-time?

Question

I just can't do it anymore, I know other people can go and work full-time but my job is stressing me out and when I come home the last thing that I want to do is my hw and projects.

Answer 1

Most employers have also taken night school and are perfectly aware of the situation.  If you have the money to go to school without working, then I would suggest that.  I ended up having to do that as well as many of my classes in 3rd and 4th year were not offered at night.

Answer 2

Education would justify gaps in your Employment History

Employers hate gaps of any prolong length of time, i.e., what was s/he doing during this time?

Answer 3

It looks good! You are investing in your future, I will be starting college soon and I wouldnt have a full time job on top of it.

Answer 4

it would look like you care about your education and a future career. Good Luck!!

Answer 5

It looks great on a resume.

And it's a good way to cover up your real answer to "why did you quit your last job?"

A) "Because my boss is an idiot and I want to kill him."

B) "Because I started going to college full-time."

If you can tell them B, then you don't ever have to explain A.

Answer 6

maybe you can ask for lesser hours or lesser days to work i mean i wouldnt quit it at all cause what happens when you need to pay of your studen loans and stuff, cause you will have them.. i think you should keep it, i heard that in todays economy ALOT of people are having trouble finding a job and its gonna be hard to find one once you quit.. keep it, trust me you will regret that you quit it...
