The Finally is referring to the amount of time it took me to post this up. Been done for about a two months or so now. I just want to list out everything I took and what it came in as for others to see later. By the way I went from 0 - 133 credits in just 381 total days!! For this post I will only list the 120 credits used in the degree itself. I added the spreadsheet as an attachment as all the information wouldn't fit in a single post. It was a "long" road but I finished my bachelor's degree much quicker after finding this forum and the excellent support I found here. I have to give a special shout out to "ndelcollo" he put some friendly competition into it that helped keep me moving forward. Best part of the competition is NOONE won, we are BOTH graduating this September 15th!!!!! There were definitely others that deserve a shout out as well, people such as "dfrecore", "bricabrac", and I am sorry but I don't remember but someone helped me out huge with Strategic Management notes and I don't remember who it was but you know and I THANK YOU!!!! The notes I am referring too are different from the ones bricabrac's.
My initial plan would have had me starting my journey at a 4 year school right around now instead of waiting to receive my degree on 9/15/17!! I have to say this has been amazing, I am already seeing the benefits to being able to check the box for a Bachelor's degree or any degree for that matter. Since getting my letter of confirmation from TESU I have been on 3 interviews for jobs ranging from G11/G14 to G14/G18. It still recent so I haven't heard anything on those positions yet. I am hopeful that I am offered at least one of them. Good Luck to everyone still moving towards the finish line, you can get there I promise. If I did this you can certainly get there as well.
Special Shout Out to my Girlfriends Mother for lending me the final $1100 I need to finish paying the residency waiver (She has been paid back in full as of 8/17/17). I was short 1100 and only have 1 paycheck left to come so she stepped up and lent me the money. Without her I probably would have had to push it back to December graduation because I didn't know they would allow you to pay residency so much after applying for graduation (credit to ndelcollo's post for learning that info)
Final Note CONGRATS to everyone else graduation 9/15/17 and those after. Also I will be attending Commencement and hope to see people there!!
