New accountability and progress thread! - Lewis.Yim - 06-28-2018
Hello World! Today is the Big Day! My accountability and progress thread (renewed and revamped)!
I just paid the LIB-495 Capstone Course and the Residency Waiver fee, time to get it done and over with!
With the Study.com affiliate pricing, it came down to $1098 and $1800 respectively.
LIB 495 August 2018 Capstone Fee: $1,129.29
Residency Wavier (for 1 year?) Fee: $1,851.30
The fees included a PayPath service fee for using a Credit Card.
I will be updating this thread each time I finish a course, until I finish my Capstone and the NMJC Biology II+Lab course.
I expect to have these all completed by the End of this Year and will graduate sometime in March 2019.

Exciting times! Yes, the residency waiver is good for a year. You need to graduate by next June at the latest, but it sounds like you have it under control.

That is awesome, good luck with your classes.

As you may already know from reading my signature, I am currently studying online at Thomas Edison State University in Trenton, New Jersey, USA for two degrees. I am taking courses towards a BSBA General Management & Computer Information Systems degree (GM complete, working on CIS Area of Study), and also a BALS with a concentration in Natural Science & Mathematics (CIS & Computer Science upper-level electives).
Basically, I am very excited to be almost complete with my undergraduate studies, I can pick up two Associates in Natural Science & Math on route to getting my Bachelors of Liberal Arts with a Natural Science & Math concentration - without taking any extra courses in either concentration! I planned the courses perfectly and those courses completely fit into my Bachelors.
After my studies are complete at TESU, I plan on completing a Master's of Science in Management & Leadership, plus an MBA in Information Technology Management at WGU Washington State (Western Governors University) because the MSML and MBA ITM have 5 or 6 overlapping courses. The MSML is geared towards Non-Profit Organizations whereas the MBA is geared towards Businesses or Corporations.

I would love to eventually do the MBA/MSML at WGU. I love your enthusiasm.
