Finally graduated with a BS degree!
#1
Wink 
Now I officially hold a bachelor of science in IT degree. Wink
I spent extra $24k to get this bachelor of science degree from a brick and mortar state university.

Thanks for the tips everyone.

I'm a guy who dropped out from university in 2015.  I transferred all of my existing credits, took missing RA courses through ASU and TEL Learning, and paid the remaining brick and mortar tuition.

It's all finished now... and I'm at the age of 30.  I can't believe it.

At the same time, I feel depressed... if I had majored in computer science back in 2012, I could already be working at a big tech company.

Happy new year everyone!

I'll still be required to take the missing courses for Georgia Tech's OMSCS program in 2023.

Congrats!!! Great accomplishment. You are well positioned now to advance with a masters in comp sci so no need to feel bad....at all. Big tech isn't a guarantee path to fulfillment as I know people that found that to be the case. You may find more money, passion or growth in a smaller company doing niche things that bring more real value to the world (medical, education). Anyway....big win and keep up the great work.

Don't feel bad. Life is not meant to be lived in the rearview mirror. Focus on the opportunities you have now and ones you'll have in the future. Say yes to every opportunity even if you have too many opportunities, because one day the opportunities stop.
