Apparently I am a finalist for the Ewald B. Nyquist Memorial Award for outstanding academic achievement and independent study. I have to send in a one page letter describing my experiences as an independent learner and an outline of my current and future plans.
Has anyone ever received this letter? I have no idea who nominated me, possibly the advisors at Excelsior????

Congratulations it is always great to be honored and you deserve it for your drive and dedication to getting finished. In case you didn't look it up here is what it says on the EC website.
Ewald B. Nyquist Award
In recognition of the leadership of Ewald B. Nyquist, author of the College, who was determined to extend the quality of educational opportunity from kindergarten through college to learners everywhere, the Trustees of Excelsior College present this award for academic excellence and outstanding achievement in earning a degree through independent study.
So way to go

Thanks so much to you all. I am speechless for all of your support. I now have 2 great interviews and have found out that I am a finalist for one of them. I may get out of the fire yet!
