Completed Final Class - East Texas A&M / TAMUC

[ATM925]

Well, it took a little longer than expected, but I completed my final courses for my BAAS in Occupational Safety and Health last week.  The term ends on 2/28, and I will graduate in May, but I am done!  Thank you all who guided the way.  I started college in 2002 and left in 2004 and had 12 credits... I found this site in 2022 and decided it was time to finish my degree. It took me a while to get started, but this past year, I worked through a lot of Sophia courses, and between my 12 from the early 2000s and 66 from Sophia, I was able to transfer 78 into TAMUC/ East Texas A&M and completed 42 credits as outlined below:

So, I was able to finish in less than 1 year after transferring 78 credits.  The cost was $3,000 ($750 per term).  It is my understanding that the cost is now $1000 per term, but since I started when it was $750, I was grandfathered in at that term price.  Overall, it felt like a good value, and I am happy with the result.  Now, I am looking into graduate programs.

For anyone on the fence, just start... there's no time like the present!

Amazing! Congrats on getting this done at an affordable price point! Great job, hope your next educational journey will be fun, I love it when people really enjoy learning! It's a funny feeling of accomplishment when you finish the degree, but the main point is the learning of subject matter that interest you.
