For FGR and "All I want for Christmas" All I want for Christmas is... to finally find an affordable way to finish my degree!! Due to extenuating circumstances, resulting in many tears and curses, I was unable to receive my degree from my college a few years ago. I'm so close, though. 131 credit hours earned. I realize not all of them will transfer to, but I'm certain many will. Having turned 24 this summer I am finally "financially independent" according to the federal government. Although, had they taken a glance at my personal finances over the past few years they would notice I've been financially independent for some time now! Come January, I'm going to fill out my FAFSA in hopes to gain some financial aid toward finishing my degree in an online program, perhaps. (as South Carolina Universities offer NOTHING in the way of distance/non-traditional education). Any of your Flickrites participated in an online degree program through a credible University or College? Any suggestions or recommendations are welcomed. :) accredited distance education degree degree at home top online mba degree distance degree program letter of intent masters degree degree in fine arts master degree in international advertising masters degree |
