You can be an inspiration to others!! GREAT JOB!

It is funny you should mention it. After seeing my success, my husband finally decided to try one of the Big Three to finish his degree. He has over 120 credits and gave up on it ten years ago because of how horribly the university functions here. It was always a big regret for him, and now he smiles when he talks about finally finishing it.
And my little brother is talking about getting his GED now that he knows how to do it (IC). His school system failed him badly as well. Now he's talking about the college technical programs he can get into with a GED.
I'm just so glad that systems like IC and the Big Three are out there to help people finish their education non-traditionally. We don't have to play by "the rules" anymore. No more BS!
