Well guys, I just finished my final final exam at excelsior for my BS in political science. I am going to be honest I would have never been about to do it without this forum, so thank you. I am a little impatient thought, the soonest I can officially graduate is the 16th of may, that is a month and a half! I am excited to continue down my educational path to the Masters in strategic leadership program at mountain state that I can hopefully start in April, that is if they will let me, considering i wont be officially a graduate by then. I guess we will have to see, Anyways thanks again guys.

Congratulations!!!
I know it's hard to wait that month and a half, but it goes by quicker than you think. Worst case scenario, if you need a little fix, request a letter of qualification from EC. At least you'll have something in your hands that is official and tells you that you're done
.
Good luck on your Master's...
