I initially came to DegreeForum in late 2013 after finding out I could complete some CLEP courses to graduate quicker from my first university. After reading through DegreeForum, I realized I could save a lot of time and money and graduate faster if I transferred to one of the "Big 3". I ended up transferring over a lot of credits from my first university to TESU (known as TESC at the time). I planned out my degree with help from this forum and then started completing courses from various sources. Eventually things just got way too overwhelming and I gave up and stopped after some months.
Every year I came back at least once on DegreeForum just to check back, and see if anything would motivate me to resume college and complete my degree. I finally got the motivation to re-enroll in April this year after seeing a Penn Foster course I had already paid for was not going to be accepted as a transfer for the capstone requirement and also due to not having a job either. The past months have been very busy, with me working right until the deadline to finish my final courses/exams for September graduation, and I'm glad to finally be done.
Congratulations! I'm glad the changes motivated you to get it done! Are you attending the ceremony next weekend?

That's awesome! It's always something that gets us going. For me it was losing a job opportunity I wanted. Whatever it is, it's great to finally get it done.

Test-o-matic Wrote:Awesome job! you really helped me to have confidence on the Saylor courses which was great. So my question is about graduation, did you apply today for December graduation or did you get an email from the registrar clearing you for "official" graduation at the September 24th commencement? I am wondering how hard and fast the Oct. 1 deadline is for December graduation If I am a week or two past that date If they will still process me through. Congrats again on your accomplishment. On to a masters?
Glad I was able to help.
No, I applied for September graduation before the July deadline (even though I wasn't finished with all my requirements).
My file was initially audited late July (still didn't finish all requirements), and I got an e-mail telling me my file would be reviewed again for September graduation on September 2.
I e-mailed the graduation department and was told I would still be eligible for September graduation as long as I had all transcripts sent in by September 1. They also said I needed to e-mail them once I submitted my transcripts so they could be processed in time.
Edit: Missed your last question. No Masters for now, time to work!
