It is Official - I am done !!!
#1
My graduation Status on Excelsior's website reads:


Degree Completion Date* 11/24/2009
and
Graduation Date** 02/19/2010

So this is my " I'm Done" post.

Finding Instancert only 5 days after enrolling at Excelsior was a miracle.
If it was not for this site, I would have wasted a lot of my time and money.
I would still be taking courses rather then graduating in Feb 2010.

This forum is an amazing wealth of knowledge and it grows and changes daily.

Just since June of 2008, I have seen the following changes/new ways to get credits:

Aleks
Straighterline
UExcel

I'm am happy to report using all three of the above options, because of posting I found here.

I also was able to get free credits from NFA and was able to take advantage of FEMA through Fredrick's college because of people sharing their stories here about these avenues.

Then there is testing out, it is hard to believe between, DSST, UExcel & ECE's I gained 21 credits. I could not have done it so quickly if it was not for the feedback section of this forum.

I want to say thank you to everyone at this wonderful community and lets all keep reaching for our goals and encouraging everyone to keep growing.

Congratulations Peace123. Your right, the sites you listed can make it as easy as 1,2,3 to get your degree. Have an extra piece of apple pie tomorrow, w/vanilla ice cream on the side. Then 30 mins on the treadmill on Friday! hilarious
