Sometimes people get sick of school. They just don’t want to finish the degree that they started. What should you do if you’re in this position?

Here are some of your options:

• Quit for a little while. Get some work experience. Get some life experience. Take a break. You can always come back later.
• Cut back to part time. You don’t have to quit school entirely to get a break. You can go down to part time and see how that works out for you.
• Switch to a new program in the same field of study. Students of physician assistant programs could look into audiology programs. Students of fitness could look into massage therapy. Trying a new approach to the same area of study can make you feel refreshed enough to finish school.
• Try an entirely different program of study. Maybe the degree program that you’re in isn’t right for you. Try something radically different.
• Transfer to a new school. Is the problem really school in general or is it just the school that you’re attending? Try a new school and see if it works out better for you.
• Stick with it. Sometimes all that we really need to do is to hang in there until the rough patch is over. If you can stick with it then you should.
