Off and on, since I've had to drop out a few times. I could've graduated a long time ago, if I didn't keep changing my majors. I am 3 classes from getting an associates degree in psychology... not sure how far from getting a bachelor's degree. And yet, I have more than enough credits to have already graduated. But I love school & don't want to stop going! Do you love school too? Are you a student? or do you already have your degree? I wish I didn't have to keep dropping out of school for personal reasons. But I am planning to go back this semester. So that is super-cool! :)

If you are 3 classes from an associates that you are almost half way to a bachelors. Multiply total credits needed for your AS in psychology and this will give you the number of credits needed for a BA in the same concentration. I have an Associates of Applied Science in business administration and I'm currently pursuing a degree in medical transcription. I was lucky when I went into the second program because 25 of the credits earned from my associates were transferable to the second degree. I essentially got to bypass all the basic education courses and got to jump in and start on the core classes instead. Since I just began this new degree this semester, I am currently taking Introduction to Health Sciences and Medical Law & Bioethics.

It took me a while to get my Bachelors degree, but I finally got my degree in 2009. I am now pursuing a Master's Degree in Early Childhood studies through an online University (Walden)and will have my degree in April. I will then pursue a second Masters in Teacher Preparation for Elementary Education. I want to be a teacher, but with a tight economy it is hard to find work. I am looking for ways to make money online so I can start up a business. I make jewelry and want to sell it. I love school and love to learn.

You are a very lucky person. You get to do what you want to do. Others may have the same thoughts as you but almost all of them are not able to just do as they wish. Money is the primary reason as no work means no income. In most of the developing countries, going to college or university is a luxury as the cost is quite high and most have to take a loan to support. Sometimes in a family, if the eldest has gone to university, the other siblings may not be able to do the same as their family can not support more than one financially.
