Im considering of doing a degree . it is one of those distance learning degrees which means that u can study privately at home at ur own pace , there will be a tutor available for u and the university will also run study weekends and summer school if help is needed.
what i want to know is do you girls think i will be able to study now that i am married. i mean we are still young and i have no kids ( gt married in nov) and we live in a flat wid sis n bro in law . so when my hubby is off too work i cud study as me n my sis share the household chores and there isnt much to do.
im a bit scared that study wil come in the way of my marriage or marriage will come in my way of studying .
my husband says he is ready to pay for my degree and is happy for me to do this course.
I dont think this is such a major issue as long as your husband is supporting you in this. And if you make a scheduel for household chores sharing the wrok with ur sis I dont think it will be a problem for you to study,
I know a few girls who managed to take their degrees after marriage and in all cases their husband were very supportive!
iv been married nearly a year now mashallah and we have our own house, i work full time and so does my husband......i have to do the house chores AND amke food AND study privatley for my exams.....
i come back from work, i cook, we eat together and i study for the rest of the evening...soemtimes i leave the studying and spend time with hubby and on weekends i do all te house chores that need to be doing.....and i make time to go out with my husband too and take time out to visit my in-laws and my parents too......
im a wonder woman......lol......
and no it wont come btween u and ur husband,......coz u wont be studying 24 hours jus at times wen he's not at home or he's busy with summit else and u can have a hour or 2 for urself.....
It might be challenging, but as long as you have your husband supporting you, believe me that will make it much easier! You can always get him to help u with ur work :D
if you have the will and have a good support system its possible.
my wife completed her masters part time, while working fulltime. initially it was just the two of us but then she had to fill her role as a mother to twins as well. she had evening classes, some over weekens, group projects, individual projects, tests etc, but she made it through. wonderwoman I call her.
I know it was demanding
and guys do it all the time, many working married guys I know are doing their masters part time. and these arenot even distant education or self study programs, but theyhave to go to classes after work couple days a week.
is it a walk in the park? not at all,
is it doable? by all means
Very possible, it depends on your will & determination.. Especially since its just the 2 of you and your household duties are shared. I was in the midst of taking master's level classes and then had a difficult pregnancy, but managed to complete final exams for that semester. In my situation I don't at the time have someone to watch the baby in the evenings as husband is on crazy schedule, but Inshallah once he gets same work schedule as me, I can go back and continue with classes, hopefully by this summer. It is tough, but you learn to manage. You kind of have to schedule it to, that I can study for this many hours these days....on weekends, but still spend time with hubby & outings. And a piec eof advice anyone will give is, make sure to keep up with assignments/readings/projects on a weekly basis, so its under control and you don't have to pull 2-3 ALL DAY study sessions before exams :) Been there, didn't like it at all....hehe practice time management & you will be fine.
You should be able to do it real easily. I am currently in my second semester for my masters and i actually go to the campus to take classes. The good thing is that i only have class twice a week so for those two days, i do my chores upfront, cook teh day before etc. I am not working at all so housework and school are my only activities and I am loving it. Alhamdulillah, my husband is really supportive as well so that helps. He helps out when he can, even made dinner once when i was late from class. I was amazed :D

im confused what do u ladies think ?
you can do it girl:D....i completed 3 semesters after getting married...i will admit that sometimes its hard but trust me its all worth it....dont be scared just do it..
I agree with everyone else...it's very doable. I'm married and also a fulltime student. It can be challenging but you really have to know how to manage time and be determined and you'll do fine. :)
its very do-able if u want it to be...as all others said...
can be hard at times,too demanding and challenging but as long as u are devoted and determined and stick to a schedule,u can get through anything....Best of Luck...:)
I finished my master's after having kids. It is difficult but doable with a great support system. You will need to create a schedule and stick with it. My toughest challenge was probably making sure that I took time out to relax and take care of myself, as we had two in diapers.
I have just begun my doctorate, so my son and oldest daughter alternate dinner and clean-up. He is turning out to be a fantastic cook!
is possible, doable and nice to do, when a caring and supportive partner is present and 100 percent able to stand by and be a strong and unconditional support.
well i got marriad last nov and i still had 2 semesters of my Bcs left. i continued going to university it was hard but still i managed with the help of my husband. the last semester was tough as my in laws moved to islamabad and i had to stay back in peshawar at my mom's place.
I am working part time I am married have a daugther, household and am doing distance studies. I just completeted a certificate where I took
classed during weekdays and learned during evening and weekend
and yes we still managed to have enought time for eachother and for our daughter, even if it meant that we both would sit in our bed with our books
(yes he is studing too) and have the daughter between us with her toys and stuff, then take time to entertain her while the other is studing.
Dont forget to take a holiday once a milestone is done, it will booste ur motivation, in the holiday dont touch your books, just take time for eachother.
