finish my degree
decisions decisions

I knew when my husband graduated that we would be moving somewhere (we had no clue at the time) for his job. the way i figured it, my degree was pretty much available anywhere so it would be no big deal to continue at a different school.

Boy was i wrong!! the school here in town only offers an accounting certificate, which i have nearly completed anyways. all i would need is a couple of genereal buisiness course and maybe 2 more accounting classes. this would be great if i were content to learn only as much as that. but im not. i want to eventually get my CPA license, and for that i need to have earned a bachelors degree at the least from what i understand.

There is another school a few hours away from us, but from what i can tell, their enrollment requirements wouldn’t allow me to get in. they require you to have taken either the SAT or the ACT. I have taken neither. The school i chose right out of HS didn’t require these, so i wasn’t even interested. and now here it is 9 years later, and i have probably fogotten most of what you would need to take these tests and do well. so tha means the other school isn’t really an option

I have always automatically dismissed the option of online schools. I pretty much figured that they wouldn’t work for me. but i have recenlty started to rethink the whole idea. not getting my degree at an online school means waiting at least another 4 years before i can even start on my degree again. to me that is a depressing idea. i will have forgotten most of what i have already learned putting me right back at the starting point.

an online school is starting to look a little more appealing.

Really?

Would they really require scores, even though you have taken college courses elsewhere? That’s crazy! I’ve attended a couple of online schools. There are advantages, you just have to be sure to research the school before signing up. Good luck! I agree, the education options here are poor.
