I’m thinking about getting back to uni to get my Masters and later a PhD. The thing is, I’m out of academia for more than 20 years, and completely at loss. I don’t quite know where to begin. Any tips?

So one thing I see people skipping is the requirements. Depending on what your undergrad is and what you want to go for for your masters you may have to take some “redmedial” classes as your degree skills may not transfer or be considered too old. This will extend the amount of time you need to complete your degree.
Also, what is the reason you want to go back for it? It is just the desire to have the degree or is there an end goal you have after it? It may not be cost effective in the long run.
