I just found out a few minutes ago that I passed my last TECEP (Marketing Communications), which means I am officially a graduate from TESC!!!! :hurray: I am so grateful to my family, friends, all of you who have helped me as I've been studying, and, most of all, the Lord for guiding me through this process - I could never, never, never have done it without Him! Through His grace, I was able to earn a B.A. in Communications in approximately 12 months and debt-free. For a review of my college journey and test/course feedback, check out this thread: http://www.degreeforum.net/excelsior-tho...gress.html It's been a crazy year, and I'm glad to be done with my formal academic education, but it feels so strange to finally not have to be studying in every spare moment I have. I'm getting a bit restless! Tongue

My plan (at least for now) is to continue to dance pre-professionally and work towards my goal of going pro within the next few years. Now that I am done with school, I can focus more time on my classical ballet training schedule. I'm also hoping to get a job in August. Although I'm not exactly sure what position I will get, I'm thinking it will probably be in the field of marketing, fundraising, news broadcasting or reporting, or public relations. We'll see what plans the Lord has for me in that area. Wink

For now, I'm focusing on preparing for the 2010 Word, Access, PowerPoint, Outlook, and Excel Microsoft certification exams. I have absolutely NO experience with Microsoft software - I'm more of a Pages kind of girl. I haven't been able to find a lot of information on the actual exams, so please let me know if you have any advice on these tests! Big Grin
