recovery addict looking for degree planning help
#1
Please help, anyone. Looking for the easiest route. I am somewhat homeless. Currently have a support system. Suffer substance abuse for many years. In recovery right now. I don’t have the biggest confidence when it comes to school.

I’m not too familiar with the top 3. Been talking with WGU but I feel finishing their program might take a lot more than a year. Spoke with UMPI. I like that I could transfer more credit with them compared with WGU. I really like Sophia Learning. Would like a place that except the most Sophia credits as possible.

Your Location: California, United States  


Your Age: 38


What kind of degree do you want? I want a Liberal Arts degree with possibly a minor in education. Feel that might be the easiest path.                                                                                                                                                 
Any certifications or military experience? None                                                                                
Budget: Qualify for financial aid.                                                                                                    
Dedicated time to study:  Can study full time but might need to get a job soon.                                                                                              
Commitments: Living on some savings. Can currently commit full time but my saving is running out. Would probably need to work soon to support me. Not married or have children.                                   
Timeline: Quickly as possible but would rather have an easier path. Was considering getting a degree from Pierpont BOG AAS. Work a bit to save money and then get back to finishing a bachelor degree. 

SOPHIA:
CALCULUS
INTRO TO STATISTICS
COLLEGE ALGEBRA
COMMUNICATION AT WORKS
ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE
 
STUDY.COM
BIOLOGY WITH LAB
 
COMMUNITY COLLEGE:
ENGL 100 FUND OF COMPOSITION 3.00 
J 101 INTRO/ADMIN OF JUST 3.00
ECON 101 PRINC OF ECONOMICS 3.00
PSY 205 DEVELOPMENTAL PSYCH 3.00
PSY 101 INTRO TO PSYCHOLOGY 3.00
NGL 101 READING/COMPOSITION 3.00 
HIST 108 POL/SOC HISTORY U S 3.00
MATH 130 ELEMENTARY ALGEBRA 4.00 
ARTC 70 COMPUTER GRAPHICS 3.00
POLI 1 POLITICAL SCIENCE 3.00
ARTS 40A SCULPTURE 3.00
PHOT BEGINNING PHOTO 3.00 

I really abuse my brain. It takes me a lot longer to study. I used to own a business in the twenties and early thirties. When that failed, my life spiraled out of control. Right now, would like to get any bachelor’s degree to get a decent job with benefits. I use to work a lot with children in summer camps. Have several summer camps connections, I just need a degree.  Any advice would be much appreciated.
