What a great story - Woman graduates college after 40 semesters of classes - Yahoo! News I don't think I could ever have the power to stick it out that long!
That is what I did, one or two classes per semester for eight years in order to complete my associates degree. I was working full time and getting deployed to the middle east off and on so taking one class a semester or two easy courses per semester was all I could manage. It wasn't until I got out of the military that I could begin taking a full time course load and take advantage of the GI Bill. :rambo:
Hm. I guess it isn't so bad that I'll get my degree about 9 years after I got my first few credits. Even better that I'll get it at about 2 years since I joined DegreeInfo.
Ya mean we have to join up at this place?! :shocked1: Man....things no one ever told me.... :grumble: :wink1:
Good for her!!!!!!!!!!! In the end, she got it done which is what matters. I know about very long, exhausting educational twists and turns, so I must tip my hat to her. Well done, Abner
I have always believed when a person wants to work for a degree, time is of no consequence as that degree will eventually become reality because they breathe sheer force determination.
Really good and heart touching story. I really proud of her confidence and goal. Our goal is most important than anything.
