I did it by enlisting family support, filling out a lot of forms for financial aid every term, making a schedule to plan for enough study time and then worked the plan.

I wish I had done this earlier in life. But perhaps it took all that time to gain experience that would help me appreciate the value of a college degree.

One day, I’d like to get another degree, perhaps a masters or doctorate. But right now, I’m glad to have finally graduated! :) Good luck to everyone else on this path—it is worth the effort! 1 week ago
