So neat that you're doing this. I hope she finds it neat, too.

She's kind of fascinated though she keeps kind of yelling at me that Hunter is supposed to have her transcripts from previous schools but I don't think it works that way, you have to get transcripts from each school you attended. Especially since Hunter didn't take all of her earned credits, so I don't want to miss any. She's a bit annoyed with the paperwork but I'm doing all the requests and printing stuff and she just signs the request forms and I am paying for them etc. I hope we can get the degree because if she's got the credits and has earned it, I want her to have itSmile My dad only finished High School and my sister didn't go to college, so I'm trying to change the tide of the family. I think it's important for her to have her degree and for me to get mine and keep the new legacy going. Smile

My 91-year old mother is quick to point out that her RN degree is an associate's degree. Although she got it from a hospital, they had staff from a university in Chicago providing classes. It will show your family that age is not a barrier to a degree.

Please tell your mother that I am rooting for her, and that I think it's wonderful!! (good job facilitating this for her!! That's awesome!)
