How to get my associates degree
It made me
proud
 "It was a lot of work, took some time, but it was worth that little piece of paper."
How I did it: I started going to community college and for 1 year i did really well, the 2nd year i blew off classes, the 3rd year i didnt even go to school, and the 4th year i finally got my associates degree. Now i am persuing my bachelors degree and i am super excited for that piece of paper. Lessons & tips: Even if it takes you five years, get all the education you can get... people respect perservearence. Resources: my advisors, my friends and family, and a goal in mind. |

It made me
satisfied
How I did it: I was close enough in credits to see the light at the end of the tunnel. I took classes that benefited me in the workplace and worked with a guidance counselor to help me find a degree with classes that I would enjoy. This made it much easier to accomplish. I ended up combining IT and Electronic Imaging for a degree in "Professional Studies". Who cares what it reads, I learned from it and I received a good education. Read how I did it…

I graduated High School in 2007 and so far i’ve only taken one semester of college. I’ve lived in several places since High School and met a lot of people, but still i feel as though i don’t have much to show for it because i haven’t completed a degree program yet. Don’t get me wrong, i’m happy with all of the experiences that i’ve had in the meantime, but i still feel a little unaccomplished without that piece of paper. I’m trying to get into school as we speak, but financial aid is holding me up a bit (amongst other things) and it’s a little frustrating.

I’m only a few classes away from obtaining my Associate’s degree. I’ve been putting it off so long, but I’m determined to get these basic courses out of the way so that I can begin pursuing my major and begin taking classes that I want to take.

I have been in the Navy for five years and never took advantage of the free college courses that were available. Now that I am out of the Navy I don’t know where to start or what I want to do. I need some encouragement.

Planning on going back this fall...

So, I’ve decided to go back for the fall of 09’ quarter. I will take my time. I’m in no rush. Besides if I take on too much I may get to overwhelmed and fail a second time.

Early Childhood Education...

This degree will allow me to start my own in home daycare.. Which is perfect because my fiance and I want to be able to home school our children when we have them.
I plan on going back to school in the spring of 2010.

Thanks to a stupid mistake on my part I get to spend a full EXTRA year at my community college. Apparently, sometime during my first semester, I failed to take a very important prerequisite for my later CCNA classes. This kind of sucks, considering I was totally ignorant to the registration process at this time.
The good news is I will only HAVE to take a couple classes each semester which will leave me with more free time to think, get fit, and maybe take electives. Since I have no choice, I’m going to try my best to enjoy the rest of college.

I went to work straight out of high school, and in September 2008 enrolled for my Associates degree in Liberal Arts. With the heavy course load I am taking now, I should finish by December 2009! I can’t wait to finish it so I can go on with my major in Computer Security.

My Associates Degree
8 months ago
As of now I am 21 years old, with a few college credits. I don’t remember how many (pitiful) But anywho, I have a few college credits but clarity is showing through every day in many ways that without an Associates at least there aren’t very many good jobs available, and career paths are limited. Pushing me even more is the fact that I am also a mom. My son is 13 months old and I want to go ahead and choose a career path and get on to whatever it is that I will be doing, while he is still young. I am not bent on going to an actual SCHOOL, i’m considering online colleges as well…My main focus though, is to get it (my degree) under my belt in a timely manner.
