I wanted to wait till my degree was conferred to make this post, I actually finished my BA in History & Political Science Cum Laude back in February. Initially I started with a BABA in Management and Leadership, I wasn't enjoying the curriculum so I switched. It set me back a few weeks because I had already completed several classes toward the BABA and there were extra classes I hadn't accounted for that were required to complete the Poly Sci. BA such as Spanish 2. Regardless, the important thing is I've finished and now Im a college graduate! 

Anyway, I'd like to thank everyone along the way on the path to my first degree! I originally found this site back in 2014 or 15, I lurked for quite awhile, always planning but never following through. Analysis paralysis I guess. Originally I meant to go to TESU when it was much cheaper, then COSC became the forum golden child. Later I was high on WGU (still am!). But I finally decided on UMPI after reading about all the success stories. Just over a year ago I took the plunge with UMPI, it was an awesome experience, and I can't thank the members of this forum enough for helping me so much throughout this journey!! I'd personally like to thank these forum members who either directly or indirectly helped me along the way:

...and all the others out there who helped me. Thank you all for everything you bring to this forum! I don't think you regulars realize how much of a difference you make, even if you feel like you're answering the same question that's been asked for the thousandth time! 


I would also like to thank Jessica, Cody, and Professor Zaborney at UMPI. All three were amazing!

Now I must decide whether to get a second, more marketable Bachelors degree (thinking BS Software Engineering/WGU) or pursue a masters (MBA/MSML).

Anyone know how soon I'll get the Parchment email to order my diploma for UMPI?

Congratulations on your achievement!
