I'm not taking out any student loans because I agree that it wouldn't be smart since I'm on SSDI and have no idea if I can ever work again to repay them.

I so agree about not moving on with my life because of SSDI makes no sense. That's why I'm trying to find something to do and am lead in this direction.

In the past,I've been known to make decisions without really thinking about them and then regret them later. That's one reason why I'm a little more cautious in pursuing this.
The link is fixed! And PLEASE READ this one as well:

Anyone receiving SSI would need to report financial aid to SS, but that is not an issue with SSDI.

And the 2nd CDR short form question does ask if you've gone to school or received any training. So, while you don't have to call and volunteer this info, at some point in time you will have to disclose it.

Shari is this a public college? If it's not, you can likely find a similar program online for less money, without a drop in quality.
