I have reached the end, I have received confirmation today of degree approval of my BSL with Excelsior, I need to wait for conferral on July 17th.
It has been an amazing journey since February 2007, over a period of two years I took 47 tests (failed none) and I ended up with a 3.81 GPA on 48
graded credits. My minor is in Psychology.
This is a small miracle as I have nurtured a secret dream of having a college
degree all these years (many of them...)
I could not have done it without all your help and guidance and as I move on
to a possible Master's in Education I can foresee many doors open that were closed before.
I want to wish the board and Instantcert the best, I will make sure that my
story repeats with many others who do not know it can be done.
I miss studying (as crazy as it sounds!) and my routine is already messed up so I started studying for the MAT to enter graduate school.
For those of you on this road less traveled by.......
It is never too late, it is never too hard, it is never impossible, it is never worthless, it is never giving up!
If I could do it, so can YOU!
Best wishes and good luck!

Great job!
Two years for an entire bachelor's degree is unparalleled in the B&M world. It simply isn't done. But you can easily reply, "Oh, yes it is!"

Look I really hate to put this here but the company has left me no choice
I have been trying now for 3 months to contact the company. Calls and e-mails. It says I do not have an active account. Yet the company keeps billing my credit card. I do not get e-mails back nor do I get return phone calls. I have been nice up to this point. Please stop billing my credit card. Since you do not answer my e-amils or calls i am hoping that by posting on the message board it does not continue to fall on deaf ears
