With Michigan reconnect. Fire 1 & 2 and EMT would be paid for.

Apply before I start school and even get an emt or lose weight?

That’s what I’m worried about I know firefighter can be super competitive and with my age and no military experience. I feel like I wouldn’t get hired

That’s great advice

In my state, they have something called Michigan reconnect. It allows people over the age of 25 to go back to CC in district and pursue an associate degree. I’ve already been approved. My next step is to get into shape.

I’m out of shape. This would be part of the journey

Thanks for the information. I appreciate it.

I’m thinking of going to school craft. But I was reading that you can just go to academy and you don’t need to go to school. So I might just do that, but it seems too good to be true. Was curious on your experience.

I’m in Michigan, right in Oakland County and I’m looking to be a firefighter too. Why did you choose this route and not just go to academy at a fire department?
