I applied for admission in st Louise community college from Bangladesh. They sent me email with my stlcc id saying that "student id number (A number) is sent in a different email". but I didn't get any email. When I sent email to them they said I would get it in a separate email. Then I waited, checked spam and when I got no email, I again emailed them. They said I need to go to the campus in person.what to do?

Hi there
Married, sole bread winner, 34, two kids in North Carolina. Have a good career currently but thinking of pursuing my dream of being a therapist/trauma specialist. I have no education at the moment. WGU has a bachelors of psychology now. It feels scary to consider making the leap, the investment, and doing something new. My kids are young so I want to enjoy the time with them as much as possible. Is it better to pursue knocking out the degree at an accelerated rate or taking one class at a time and going the long game? Could I take one class at a time that is condensed?

Hey guys, recently found out about the forum and was wondering what you would do in my situation. I took a bunch of clep and dsst tests in 2018 and wanted to get a degree as fast as possible. Just finding out about Sophia and WGU so would be curious on any recommendations for those programs as well.

| Seeking Academic Writing Resources for UMPI BAS Degree |

Hello everyone,
I’m nearing the completion of my Pierpont degree and planning to transition to the University of Maine at Presque Isle (UMPI) for their Bachelor of Applied Science (BAS) Degree Plan. Before applying, I want to refresh my academic writing skills.
Could anyone recommend resources or materials on academic writing? Does UMPI have its own book on the subject? I know that Thomas Edison State University (TESU) uses “Writing Research Papers: A Complete Guide” by Lester, J. D., & Lester, J. D., Jr. (2018) for their capstone courses. Does UMPI have an equivalent resource?
Any tips or materials you could share would be greatly appreciated!

| Seeking interviewees with non-accredited/non-traditional degrees for Ohio State Study |

Hello!
My name is Sam and I'm a doctoral candidate at Ohio State studying non-traditional colleges and universities. I previously posted on DegreeForum earlier this year so if this post looks familiar, that's why. I was able to connect with a few helpful folks here who I interviewed about their experiences with non-accredited colleges and universities, and I am still seeking interviewees so I'm here again. I know that these kind of recruitment posts can sometimes be annoying for people, so I do apologize in advance, but I hope this won't be seen as too off topic.
TLDR: Ohio State PhD Seeking adults who earned degrees or certificates from non-accredited colleges/universities for a 60-90 minute interview about their experiences.
Formal call for participants:
Hello all, I am a doctoral student at The Ohio State University in the department of Sociology. I’m currently completing dissertation research on non-accredited colleges and universities and I am recruiting adults who have obtained a degree from a non-accredited college/university and would be willing to participate in a 60-90 minute interview via Zoom or telephone to talk about their experiences. I am interested in talking to both individuals who intentionally sought out a degree from a non-accredited institution, or individuals who were unaware that their college was non-accredited at the time of earning a degree.
Some examples of non-accredited institutions (with some nuances regarding accreditation in certain countries): Rushmore University, ENEB University, Alexandria University, Ashwood University, Corllins University, Frederick Taylor University, Suffield University, Pacific Western University, Thornewood University (note: your institution doesn't need to be one of these to participate, these are merely examples).
Your participation will help increase knowledge on these institutions, why adults might seek credentials from non-traditional colleges, and higher education more broadly.
For any questions or to participate, please contact me at mitchell.1857@osu.edu or fill out this Google Form.
