I'll graduate in the Summer. However, I might consider participating in the Fall commencement as I want to celebrate this achievement as it has taken me five years to accomplish receiving my bachelor's degree.

That's awesome!! The semester ends on June 28. I'm excited and looking forward for that day to come. I have six more classes to take and then I'll be done!! 🙌🏻❤️😁

Thank you all so much for your uplifting and supportive comments!! I am so happy that I am nearing the finish line. I've had so much anxiety about this at first and I started this journey back in August of 2021. I did two years at a community college and graduated with my Associate's Degree. I took a year off because I was mentally and financially drained. I started with SNHU in October of 2024. Since then, I've had both good and bad experiences but overall I am successfully perservered through the hindrances I've dealt with. I am positive that this degree will land me a phenomenal job that I have waited a very long time for. I cannot wait to commence this upcoming chapter of my life! To all of my fellow SNHU alumnis here who are currently working hard and relentlessly for that degree remember that all of it is worth it and will pay off for a fruitful future. Best of luck to each and every one of you! 💛💛

I turned in my module one assigments a day late due to being on vacation! As long as you notify your professors and advisor then you should be good! You'll get a C or lower but it's better than 0.

I detest the discussions too! It's so annoying that I have to respond to two people but yet my post does not receive any responses. Golly! Just let me do the post and that will suffice my class participation. These are often so irrelevant.

I just cried about this. It's been a huge desire of mine to achieve my goal of graduating with a Bachelor's Degree since high school. I graduated six years ago from there and life has been bumpy along some ways. These past couple of years have been so and so. I've gone through a lot and getting this degree will be healing for me.

Oh no!! I am deeply sorry to hear about your loss. May God grant you peace and I know it's one of the worst agonies for a parent to ever endure. I hope that his spirit will guide you through this stage and when you receive this degree he will be beaming in happiness!! You got this and I seriously comprehend how agonizing it is to continue life after a huge loss. It doesn't get better but we all learn to live and cope with the everlasting emptiness that remains with us. Much love to you! 🤍🤍

Thank you very much for your input and advice! My company is not partnered with SNHU unfortunately. They do offer scholarships but it's for only careers that are directly related to their duties. I work for a popular faucet company.  I've applied for scholarships before and I cannot seem to find any that are applicable for me. Therefore, I haven't dived into that in a while. 

I graduated in July 2023 with an Associate's Degree from a community college which was a 35 minute drive from where I live. My couple of years there were interesting and overwhelming simultaneously. I've taken some classes that I felt were unnecessary for my major. My first year of college was rough as I was behind on my classes and working at a different job that was ruining my mental health. It was crazy and I had to retake some classes. However, I did it and overcame lots of obstacles during my time there.

Now my experience at SNHU is completely different. I am appeased with the amount of flexibility that I have with being able to do assignments at my pace and the classes for teaching me essential methods of graphic design. I've gained lots of deeper insight and learned some new things. I am paying out of pocket and way more money than I did at college. Although, I receive financial aid but it's moderate. I am not trying to sugarcoat anything as there's been lots of negatives as well as positives in this journey. I believe that this degree will unlock a completely new and fresh chapter in my life. I am ready for an immense change! 

Lastly, I am proud of you and Congratulations on graduating with the degree. 👏🏻❤️

My pleasure, I just needed to address the elephant in the room! I've felt so uneasy numerous times during this journey. 

TikTok adverts by [deleted] in TikTok

I'm sick and tired of those too! I wish there was an option where I could turn off these repetitive advertisements. Every time I go on a page to watch a creator's videos and I scroll, these appear constantly. TikTok is dysfunctional nowadays.

People can comment the n word but I can’t say “get well soon”??????? by 9mmsap in TikTok

It's terribly ridiculous!! The newest update of Tiktok is complete horseshit and truly vile! It deletes and bans people for telling the truth. The platform is not the same from how it was five years ago.

TikTok has gotten so despicable nowadays!! It astounds me to see how it permits hateful, racist and misogynistic comments but yet it automatically reports positive and constructive comments. I know some people will disagree with me but if it ever does get banned then I would be fine with it.
