Hey y'all,
After overcoming numerous challenges, I am finally cleared for graduation in September
. Previously, I obtained an AA from COSC and then discovered that TESU offered a BA Photography program, which aligned with my original major. Regrettably, my experience with the TESU PLA course and instructor turned out to be highly unfavorable, leading me to withdraw from the course. But I stayed positive and opted for a BA in Liberal Studies to avoid further unnecessary complications. Over the years, I had already earned a significant number of college credits... RA, Sophia, SL, and Study.com.. so my degree requirements were pretty much already met. I decided to pay the residency waiver fee ($3,354 now 
) instead of completing the 16 (now 15) required credits at TESU to keep things simple.
Looking ahead, my current plan involves pursuing a Master of Science in Learning Experience Design and Educational Technology at WGU. I lean towards Competency-Based Education (CBE) due to my challenges with deadlines. There's also the possibility of pursuing another master's degree elsewhere in the future, potentially in Biotechnology. I am grateful to those who have provided assistance and answers to my inquiries on this platform.
