"If God is willing she will go to college and study dentistry or even better than that." 

"Her happiness with her kids' gesture is bigger than her happiness with graduation"

Not the first Arab elderly to graduate at an old age
Obstacles fade in the face of determination and some Arabs are making sure to let the world know about their serious educational plans... even at the age of 80. 

Last year, a 74-year-old Palestinian grandma, Najma Khalil Abu Esbaa, received her Ph.D. She had worked as a teacher in the UAE for over 17 years and was able to achieve her life-long dream after she presented and defended her doctoral thesis to a panel of judges. 

The beginning of 2018 witnessed the enrolling of a 64-year-old Saudi man in school to accomplish his dream of graduating high school. He is now studying at the same level as his daughter. 

Also last year, an 81-year-old Palestinian grandpa studied hard to pass his high school exams, which he had failed the year before.
