Give an adjustment in the time frame to complete graduate careers for couples and single parents with children

Created by M.M. on November 09, 2011

Careers like medicine, pharmacy, and health have specific time frame to be completed, particularly for complex family life. We are struggling to fulfill our studies responsibilities and do our best with the issues at home. If a student doesn’t finish in 4 years, he or she is offered an extra 2 years to complete a graduate career. These academic courses demand over 15 credits per semester. If their career is not completed within this time frame, their studies can be terminated. If these students have student loans while on school, they are responsible for this debt, even if they haven’t finished. I would like to submit a petition to change this strict and unjustified time frame and help clear from such unnecessary obstacles our path into the demanding jobs world.
