Weber State

Anyone that reads our blog knows that our lives have been known to suddenly shift directions often. We have gotten used to it as well as we can and try to take life one day at a time.

Our newest piece of news is that Brett got an acceptance letter from Weber State. After thinking it over- all the pro's and con's, he decided that he will be attending the masters program there in the fall.
Some of the pro's are....
-no summer school for Brett which saves us $2500.
- tuition is a lot cheaper... it will save us 11 thousand dollars over the year.
-the program is smaller and may be a bit easier so he will be able to stay at the top of his class rather than be in the middle of the pack.
-all the same recruiters come to Weber as come to U of U.
- the business/accounting classes are not in Ogden, they are on the campus in Layton which is not as far.
-they have evening courses so he will get to work more.

Con's....
-driving 3 times a week to Layton... (about and hour each way as apposed to 45 mins to the U)
-less competitive program as looked at by the recruiters.

Quite a lot more Pro's than Con's.... Honestly if it weren't for our jobs we would just move to Ogden. But we have too good of a thing going here with both of our jobs. Brett will be attempting to go to school M, W, Th evenings and work about 30 hours a week. Which is something he has done all through school and I could never do. But If things get too rough, he will cut back on work. I am actually really excited about the decision. I feel good about it and so does he.
