Just wanted to say a HUGE thanks to all of y'all who helped me! I am done with my Bachelor's Social Science. SOOOOO excited to have this dream fulfilled.
I started January 21st and finished today. All in all it took me about 6 months plus 1 week (starting with 0 credits), as I had to take 2 months off for my mom's cancer surgery and her many Dr visits, and then under so much stress I got sick and ended up in the ER for myself (not my mom) so I needed time to recuperate.
BUT.... I DID IT!! SIGH! I am so relieved. 
Life changing event here, y'all!
I can't stop smiling! 
THANK YOU!!!!
