About a year ago I discovered this forum after reading a book by Jay Cross. I assume most of you know who he is if you're hacking college.
Thanks to your feedback I was able to not only complete my degree but gain admission into an Ivey League University for Grad school. The Last 8 months have been surreal. I've completed 43 credits in that time. Could've finished earlier, but I had a death in my family that made me take a slower approach to finishing. In the end, I'll be finishing with a BSLA from Excelsior. I entered there with about 79 credits and took most of my CLEPS in one month. I dared to apply to grad school, some pretty big programs too. Got into all of them to my surprise. I thought they would discriminate against my degree coming from my online school. Ultimately, I turned down my admission because I couldn't justify the high tuition prices. I'm sure I would've enjoyed studying there, but I'm against taking out debt for school if it can't be paid off 1 year after graduating. Maybe I'll go there for my Ph.D. one day. Next on my list is a Master's in City Planning and a bachelor's in Electrical Engineering. I will build the cities of tomorrow. They will be high-tech and feature free wifi so people can do school from anywhere, as I did. Shouts out to all the people starting their journey you can do it, we're rooting for you.
Note: Although my degree says liberal arts, I took a lot of business-related courses because I feel that they're dual serving. You can use them to get a job or in your personal life. Debunking the myth that liberal arts majors are unemployable. I will be the richest person to ever graduate from an online university. No worries though, just going to give the money to social causes. Thanks again.
The courses I took:
CLEP
PRINCIPLES OF MARKETING
INTRODUCTORY PSYCHOLOGY
AMERICAN GOVERNMENT
INFORMATION SYSTEMS
INTRODUCTORY SOCIOLOGY
INTRODUCTORY BUSINESS LAW
PRINCIPLES OF MACROECONOMICS
PRINCIPLES OF MANAGEMENT
DSST
MONEY AND BANKING
