I wanted to apply for a better job, but I didn't have enough education for the requirements. I didn't know then what I know now. So I toughed out three more semesters at the local university around the split shifts at my physically demanding job and finally managed to fulfill requirements for an Associate of Arts degree. I knew I wanted a bachelors, but at that rate it would have taken me three or four more years. It seemed out of reach and I was tired.
I was sick of the campus, sick of the university's ridiculous fees and requirements and schedules... so I started looking for an online school. I found several degree forums and one of those led me here. I learned all about testing out and the Big Three. There were so many success stories. I was wary, but I signed up for IC and took my first exam (CLEP Educational Psych). It freaked me out, but I passed! Three credits, just like that! I was hooked. I enrolled with Excelsior and never looked back.
Now I'm working on the masters I never thought I could achieve... all thanks to IC, EC, and exams for credit. And I changed my career!
Ever grateful,
Ever Upward!
