Tomorrow will be the one year anniversary of my first post here, and my first baby step towards completing a degree.
My stats are not impressive. In the year, I started with 46 credits, half from an aborted community college attempt in the 90's, half from a vocational school I attended. To that, I have only added 34 credits, and some aren't able to be applied to my current path.
But, after I finish my portfolio process, I expect to be almost finished.
I haven't gone as fast as I could, nor have I loaded myself as many here do. I took a slower, less-taxing path, and yet, here I am, completing a Bachelors!
I wouldn't have done this without the support and guidance of this site. I am humbled to be here, and owe y'all quite a debt.
I'm only posting so that if other me's out there cruise through here, if I can do it, I KNOW you can!!
