Finished!! College graduate! :)
#1
Hi guys, I haven't been posting here in awhile due to a new job. I had the good news on my signature for awhile, but I am proud to say I am a four year bachelor degree holder, yay! I just want to say thank you to everyone for helping me succeed to this point. The advice on this forum is top notch and I don't want to thank just a few members individually, instead I rather thank everyone. Thank you everyone!!! Smile Thanks to all the old threads as well. It all started on a simple Google search, I found this forum googling "colleges that accept NA credit". I stumbled upon this forum and also a fellow forum member who I met in the Penn Foster forums perriquit explained to me what the big three was. I know I said I won't thank anyone individually, but this individual person was the sole reason why I am here. Without him I probably would not actually be where I am right now. perriquit took his time out of his busy schedule to mentor and guide me to the right path to a college degree. Again, I do want to thank everyone once again especially the ones who I back and forth-ed messaged, I know I blew up your inbox's but it was for a good cause, lol. It took me a while to grasp and understand how the system worked. The enrollment fee, the transfer of credit and what was ACE credit. I started off with just a Penn Foster College associate degree graduate and now I am here. A four year bachelor degree holder at a regionally accredited state college. I am seeking grad school, I have my eyes on WGU and Liberty University. However, I am going to see some state universities first just to snoop around before I make my final decision. Most likely I will be doing an MBA. I just got my diploma in the mail a few days ago from TESC and I will be attending the September graduation. I don't know if anyone else is going but it would be pretty cool to meet fellow TESC alumni and/or degreeforum members.
