And I usually enrolled in 12-15 credit hours per semester while working 40-60 hour work weeks.
Point is, you'll have to work for it. You have to be an adult if you're poor without connections. A daunting concept for many, it would seem.

In the US, school is anything from elementry to graduate....wait for it...school. (We say "graduate school."😉
Even our universities sometimes have the word "school" in them such as the Spartan School of Aeronautics.

In North America, the term school can refer to any educational institution at any level, and covers all of the following: preschool (for toddlers), kindergarten, elementary school, middle school (also called intermediate school or junior high school, depending on specific age groups and geographic region), high school (or in some cases senior high school), college, university, and graduate school.
Admittedly my grades were garbage back in college as a Physics major. In fact I had to retake several classes in addition to working during my "Summer Vacation" just to make sure I would earn my degree.
Then again I would argue that is now a bit more work trying to find work that will allow one to move forward in the United States but we all have to start somewhere right?
