Hey girl,,thanks for posting ! How much longer do u have to go, and are you getting a degree,certification or both ?

dixie · 03-17-2011, 07:59 PM

I'm actually just beginning my journey into it...lol At the moment I'm doing a degree and a certification. It's a 3 year course that I'm doing in a year and a half, and then will be transferring to a different college. My main goal is to eventually get my PhD. Hopefully. Unless I get bored and change programs a couple times...lol

people change majors all the time !! heh !! Are u doing this on-line ?

dixie · 03-17-2011, 08:39 PM

I have 2 onsite classes (5days a week), 1 hybrid class that was part on-site and part online, and 2 fully online classes. I think I like the online classes better, and may try to get all of them that way for next semester.

wow you sure do have a full load ! We get a new class every 4 weeks..right now I have medical terminology and law..2 days a week on line and 2 days on campus..I kinda like it..

I like those kind of hybrid classes. The one I just had was a "minimester" class. 16 weeks worth of class all crammed into 4. Whew! lol The professor said he posted our final grade for that class a couple days ago and I can't find it anywhere. I emailed him but he hasn't responded yet. I really want to know! lol

I'm taking an at-home course from a home study college thats accredited across Canada ~ that should count right? I'm taking Accounting, just started that within the last two weeks and I know already that I'll love it! I'm not much into crunching numbers and such, but I can just tell that its going to be a rewarding career and thats really what I'm looking for.

I can take upto 2 years to get it done, but I don't wanna take more than a year to finish if humanly possible. It helps to be on disability cuz then I can devote as much time to concentrating on My studies as possible ~ maybe once this is done I'll look into getting My CGA (I'll look into that closer to when I know I'll be done this one) and we'll see where things go but I'm enjoying it alot so far ........... love being a student :-)

I'm 32 hours into my degree and start back in the Fall at Winona State University here in MN. I am a double major, Psychology and Women & Gender Studies. I hope to go all the way to a PhD. My goal is to work with GLBT youth.
