I just got excepted into grad school today. I'm really excited! I've been with my SO for 11 years, we built a house together. Unfortunately, he's freaking out about the financial aspects of me going to grad school. Since building the house we pretty much live paycheck to paycheck. Also, I already have student loans I am paying back currently.
I'm really hoping he will be supportive of me being in grad school. And luckily it is a low residency program in the same state that we live in. My current bosses are even being very flexible and letting me keep working there when I can. Anyway, I'm having issues with him not being able to get passed the financial part. I know it's a risky investment so to speak, but it's something I need to do. He didn't even congratulate me. A big bummer.
