This afternoon I turned in my last exam, so all the requirements have been met for a BA from Columbia College. It only took seventeen years from when I graduated high school, but who's counting? Now for that grad degree.......
Outstanding! It was 24 years after high school for me, if that makes you feel any better.... . Even better that you're already thinking about that Grad degree, but for now, wear your arm out patting yourself on the back on a major accomplishment. My sincerest congratulations! Dave
CONGRATULATIONS! It will have been 23 years when I have finished mine early next year. Again, congratulations on your success!
From HS to my first bachelors was one month short of 26 years. To the second bachelors was 26 years, 2 months. My first complete accredited masters (not counting the MMin from Nations) will be 1 month under 28 years and the second will be 28 1/2 years. (Lord willing) My wife didn't finish high school - she then got a GED 8 years later and enrolled in College (B&M resident FT) - she'll finish her BA this coming May, 13 years after she quit HS. She's expecting academic honors and is planning a master's as well. It's never too late to finally get those academic goals completed. And some people complain about 5th year seniors Congrats on your remarkable accomplishment and keep driving until all of your academic dreams are met...
I graduated from High School way back in 79 and did a two year stint at Suffolk Community and Stony Brook Univ. Stonybrook recommended I take some time off which I did...many years. Thank goodness for degree completion programs and DL learning. For me, learning as an adult is so much better. This time around I really want to learn. Of course I realize how much I missed back then, but that is part of the learning, too. Congratulations again.
