    Disability Benefits and Education
    I am a mentally-disabled forty-three year old man. I suffer from severe depression. My physician has recommended that I enroll in a few college courses to get me more involved mentally and socially. Would my attempt at college in any way affect my disability benefits? ( I very much doubt that I would take more than a few hours per semester.)

    Thanks for your help! Tom [email protected]

    It should not have any effect at all. My neighbors son gets SSI for basically the same thing and he is allowed to attend college. Good Luck

    Hello tom:

    Nahhh. Just don't accept a job as a professor, though.
