My 17 year old is done!!!!
#1
I can't believe it but my daughter, Briana, has finished all of the requirements for a Bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice at TESC. She started taking CLEPs in September and she just took the final for her last class yesterday. Now she just needs to apply for graduation. It's a good thing my second daughter just started earning college credit for high school or I wouldn't know what to do with myself. Smile

There was a time when this type of success story seemed nearly impossible. Now, with proper organizational skills and the personal determination to succeed, it can be done as your daughter has proven. I cannot tell you how proud I am of both you and her. (And I don't even know you....) Big Grin What are your daughter's plans from here? Is she done with school or is she going to continue for a higher degree? Whatever the case may be, she has success written all over her. Congratulations!!

Wow! Criminal Justice! Interesting degree for a 17 year old girl. What are her plans now?

My son is on his way to 'being done' too. He will probably still be a teen then, but just barely (19). If we hadn't had debate and speech and dual-college credits (for a gpa) to do and piano contests, he could have done it sooner. I probably would have suggested just that had I know what I do now.

Congratulations to your daughter!
