BLS Degree Complete- Big Thank You!!

[dm.hans32]

To everyone on this forum that has helped me out, thank you so much for the guidance you've provided. I can happily say that I received my final grade in my last UMPI class (a 4)( and have finally completed the required coursework to finish my undergrad journey!

After trying (and failing) college several times between 2009 and 2016, I started again in January of 2024. I had somewhere to the tune of 30 RA credits and some military JST credits mixed in. Since then, I have completed 46 Sophia credits, 9 Coursera credits and 30 UMPI Credits. I also received my BOG AAS with emphasis in criminal justice in the spring and used that as springboard to keep me going.

I completed 10 UMPI courses in two YP terms, and I will graduate with a BLS degree with minors in criminal justice, history and political science.

It hasn't all been smooth sailing. It seemed like life got in the way as much as possible- a few bouts with COVID, a nasty case of shingles, and both parents dealing with some scary illnesses, but I made it through. This forum is truly a great place to draw guidance, inspiration and motivation from.

To anyone who is still plugging away at their degree- keep going! You will get through it and it will all be worth it at the end.

Thanks again, and take care.

-Dan

Congrats on getting this completed Dan! You can now focus on your Masters in your previous thread... My suggestion, HAU MBA, UMPI MAOL or WGU, as the most affordable options for backup, and then you can make a shortlist of say 5 or 6 you really wanted to attend. You can review your previous thread along with the sticky I pointed to as well.
