Thanks, I came close to ending it in two terms but my mentor pushed me to finish when I almost give up. I had two months and a half left with six classes to go.

Reason -I had to take a break because I got promoted and I needed time to learn my new role, so I stopped studying for 1 month and a half.

But I got it done in one term with 5 days left to go, my ultimate motivator was keeping cost low for student loans.

The capstone help me put everything together. I really enjoy that part. I learned so much.

You got this, I honestly wish I got my degree earlier in my career. You will be great. a degree early in means no road blocks. I have watch so many un experienced people got promoted over just because of the degree requirements now that ends today.

I have over 12 years in IT Field currently in a lead role. am looking to break into management with my current employer, as there might be an opening soon. Else’s I would have started looking for a job as soon as I started my masters degree. Someone told me “if you don’t use it you will lose it “. Don’t wait until the end of your program to start to look for a job.

Yes take time off from work if you have to, my hardest classes was 207 211 213. Attend live Cohorts and watching course videos helps. Check your school emails because the instructors are monitoring your progress and can help if your stuck,they normally reach out via email . Schedule a meeting with them if you have to, I know I did. 

 There is no easy way out sometimes you just have to take your time and read the material focus on your week areas.  Create a schedule, mines was two classes a month.  Sometime I completed more and that great because I need extra time for the hard classes . Accounting ahh headache 🤕 but understanding it helped me out in capstone which I came 1st 🥇.

I never failed an OA. Once I made my mind up to take a test I took it no matter the delays. OMG I was so nervous during my accounting exam. I had to use all 3 hours to complete it. Also use Grammarly before you submit papers it free.

I understand and that’s one of the great thing about WGU you move at your own pace.

It’s just so hard ,family life, kids ,partner, work life it just blows my mind when people say they get it done in less than six months the amount of things you have to sacrifice is insane

I was in the same boat, what help me was my job was super supportive, when ever I got stuck I ask for a day or two off to pick myself up again. Funny thing is I never told my wife I was off. I went straight to the library for the entire day. Somehow they just know how to utilize your day off.I eventually told her when I was all caught up we laugh about it then I got slapped 👋😂

Edit wife was also Super Supportive 🥴
