Sometimes it only takes maturing to do better in college.
That and perseverance.
I ask people that are older than the “regular” student when they are saying they will be x age when the graduate it y years, how old will they be in y years if they don’t continue with school.
OTOH, the cost for college has gotten out of hand.
