Guess what? I got my first degree!

You know, the more I read this post, the happier I am for you! You have survived through so many stumbling blocks, only to pick yourself up and keep going! What a great example. Now we are going to look for your post when you finish up your BS at Penn Foster!!!! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Actually, they let me set my own monthly payment. I'm doing $39 right now, but I get tuition reimbursement at work, so I'll get it all back. One of the great things about Penn Foster is that you don't have to buy any books, and as you well know at this point textbooks are sometimes costing more than the tuition for the class itself. Our tuition reimbursement program at work doesn't cover the cost of books, so Penn Foster is really a great choice for me.

 

Good for you! You found the best school for you, and you wont have piles of debt to pay off when you are done. Smart.

I've enjoyed reading your blog and keeping up with your progress. Congratulations on your accomplishment, and best of luck in your studies at Penn Foster!

 

Thanks! I'm genuinely excited.

 

Good work!

Exceptional! Congratulations! It took me 13 years to get my A.S. (General Studies!) It's never too late!

 

Congratulations, earning your degree is great at any age! I'm close to finishing mine as well, and I think I will feel more accomplishment finishing now with kids and working than I would have right out of high school. Good stuff.

 

Welcome! Good job on almost finishing up? Which degree will it be?

Thanks, everyone. My family has been through a rough patch recently and this accomplishment is something positive, for sure.

 

good job....
