I am now the proud bearer of that lovely piece of paper known as a Bachelor of Applied Science degree! It's been a fun, interesting, and slightly convoluted road, but I've finally made it. I earned my degree in IT Management about 10 days ago, maintaining a perfect 4.0 GPA and doing all kinds of other cool things along the way. I've contemplated going for a master's degree this fall, but I'll have to see about that. For now it feels good just to take some time off - this is the first summer since 2010 that I haven't been taking a class.
I made another topic for my associate's degree two years ago, and even though I've only taken classes at a brick-and-mortar institution, I felt like making a new topic. Passing lots of CLEP tests was instrumental in getting me to where I am now, and your help and feedback were quite valuable back when I was studying for the CLEP tests.
You folks do great stuff. Keep being awesome!
Course clear! You got a card.

Awesome Job! Congratulations. Be sure to buy yourself something nice or go out and celebrate, a degree is a tremendous accomplishment.

Don't waste time by trying to save time. The only sure way to complete your degree is to knock out credits quickly and efficiently.
Don't let easiness bite you in the rear. Know your endgame (where you want to be) and plan backward from there. Your education is a means to an end.
Be honest professionally, socially and academically. There are people (especially little ones) who look up to you and they're going by your example.
Be proud. Whether you're an Engineer or Fast Food worker, there is honor and dignity in hard work.
Picking on people weaker than you only proves that you are a weak person.
