I registered for my last semester of graduate school this week. While I am very excited to being done with the program, I do have to admit that the time has gone by quickly. It is crazy to think that I will have my master's degree in August. I have never once regretted my decision to go back to school and I have learned so much that is already helping me at work. Vanderbilt has been a great school to go to and I have loved this program's online format - it has enabled me to continue working full time and have some power over my personal schedule. As long as you can stay on track without sitting in a traditional classroom, I highly recommend online learning.
One reason that I feel that I have been so successful in this program is because of the support I received from my family. Mike has been so great at understanding and being supportive of the time, financial, and personal sacrifices that went along with my decision to return to school. He understood that some evenings have to be spent in front of the computer, that I needed extra help getting things for the house done, and that sometimes I needed a pep talk to keep giving my best effort. Mike even put finishing his own degree on hold...something that I never intended to happen...but he did it so that I could start the program when I got accepted. I am so grateful to my sweet husband for being my cheerleader through this whole process. Thanks babe!
