    Default One Degree Down - One To Go!!!!

    Hi Everyone-
    As you can tell by my signature I have finished my Psychology Degree! I am so excited!!!!!!! I took my last test last Monday afternoon. As soon as my degree is conferred, I will be able to re-enroll back into the School of Business and work on my primary degree - an Accounting Degree.

    I want to thank everyone on this Forum for giving me support and encouragement. I couldn't have done it without all of you. I especially want to thank my husband, Kiwi Lover and Snazzlefrag. Without their help I don't know if I would have been able to make it. InstantCert is such an integral part of my journey. I have to give a special thanks to Steve and InstantCert because I was able to do in such a short period of time what would have taken me years to accomplish. Thank you, Steve, for this marvelous product and the awesome Forum site.

    This is such a dream come true for me. I never even allowed myself to have this dream. I can't tell you what it means to me! At 48 if I can do it, so can you! I am lucky to have the love and support and partnership of my husband. He just graduated from Excelsior with an MIS Degree (conferred July 20, 2007). Without him discovering this way of earning a degree, it would have never happened for me.

    Wow! Congratulations, Dawn! You must feel like a million bucks right now! I can't wait to be where you are. I will have my BS/BA in March. I can't even believe it's that close! Do something nice for yourself to celebrate all that you have accomplished. You deserve it!
