Wow! That little word seems inadequate, but it's all I can say to describe what I'm feeling. My diploma from TESC has arrived...that wonderful piece of paper that commemorates the hard work of my college education! With it, comes a sense of closing. It's finally real!!!
The Lord has been so faithful during this journey. I was blessed to be homeschooled and was able to accumulate almost 60 credits before my high school graduation in 2012. In December of 2013, I applied for graduation...after doing all of my college from home! On March 7, 2014 I graduated with my BA in History. I thank the Lord for seeing me through.
Thanks to all, here, who helped me along the way! Your friendships have meant so much. I truly believe the Lord led me to IC...I could not have done it without you!!!  I have always said it, but I will say it, again. You all are the BEST!!!!
I am humbled by the Lord's goodness! May He receive the glory!
Many blessings!

Congratulations!! My daughter has a similar story to yours. She also earned 60 credits by the time she graduated from high school in 2012 and is finishing up her last class with TESC now so that she can graduate in June. She never could have accomplished this without the guidance and advice from everyone here. The IC community is truly a blessing!

Congrats! I was a fellow March 7th grad, and also with a B.A. in History. But high school was twelve years ago, so it's been a long journey for me.
It is a great accomplishment, but seems surreal. I take out my degree or my transcript almost every day just to look at it - as if it was not quite real. I don't think it has quite sunk in yet.

Thank you, Mrs. Danielle! It's exciting! Congrats to your daughter...I love hearing similar stories. I am grateful I was able to do college at home. It was and is the greatest blessing! Yes, IC was so instrumental in my testing.

Thank you! Congrats to you, as well! I agree...it seems very surreal. I am so happy to be done!

Thank you! When I was testing, it seemed that it would be forever before I got to write my "I'm done" post, but the Lord saw me through! Blessings as you continue on this journey...

Well done. What aspect of your history degree did you enjoy the most? When your studied for your various history tests, did you study for one that, initially, you didn't think you'd find interesting/fun/intrigueing, but then did?
