      ​@pandaangry1267What is your recommendation? Go slower? I hate to break it to you but financial aid is not coming if they were previously employed in any job that paid more than dirt.
      I understand the reasoning for encouraging a longer learning period, repeated perfect practice makes perfect, as does rest and recall reinforcement. The issue is, without an employer that supplies your practical experience or a job that has benefits, the chances and challenges of taking a slower learning period won't even out. College (no matter how long it takes) is only enough knowledge not to kill someone. Afterward, how and where your experience is filled largely depends on your social network, job hunting skills, and long-term goals. Scholarships are an option , but again, people are trading time for experience. That is, writing and maintaining a contact list for scholarships might be helpful but only so long as the alumni network is large and respected. It is free money, but the time invested for the scholarship relationship is not always free. Only a few college designations, such as a Rhodes or merit scholarship from an Ivy League, actually carry any weight in recruiting circles, and that is only for jobs that pay an intern rather than beginner market value salary. As much as people assume the price should be one and the same, it isn't, and neither is the recommendation or goodwill of the company. Once they bump salary,benefits, and retirement planning into it, a company's openings are even more limited due to higher investment costs. Often, they might choose the person that is the best fit, even if most candidates are equally good in all other areas. If they know you have family commitments in an early career period, expect to be overlooked. Or, to have to lie and compromise honesty for money. Poverty otherwise means moral compunctions and perfect company choices are going to fly out the window unless they are doing something more illegal and provable than circumspect workplace discrimination like, asking a nonsalaried member of a team to complete actual company projects without pay. Calling it a "trial" period is demonstratedly false and what everyone else in the world calls fraud and slavery.
      The benefits of going slower when you don't have health insurance, dental insurance, or a retirement plan/consistent income are vastly overrated. The issue is that with technology more time doesn't automatically mean someone is guaranteed more money. Call it a shame but more countries are facing difficulties with the reality of online learning and the expediency with which they need to retrain workforces to meet market demand. This doesn't invalidate slower learning paths but it changes the rate at which we consider acquiring basic knowledge. Humans were bad at remembering things until we discovered songs, organizational story telling, and finally, writing. Technology has compressed and diversified how, when, and where people receive their education.

    I don’t know about anyone else, but when I need the extra motivation and inspiration I come back and watch more College Hacked videos. This one class at UMPI is causing me to struggle. I feel defeated bc I’m only going to complete 2 classes in my first term. He requires a LOT of writing and when I’m not writing about something I’m enthusiastic about it’s very difficult for me. Especially when I can’t stop perfecting. I’m also ADHD so that makes it worst. I’m about to start taking my meds again 😂 I’m also knocking out Sophia (57 credits and 45 of those came in after my free 10 minute zoom call) so I am moving in something.😅

Once you know your way around it will get better :) But even if it takes you a couple more terms than you planned for, you’re still CRUSHING this whole hacking thing by earning a degree so fast and inexpensively 🤩 Nothing worth having comes without some effort, you’re putting in that effort now!

      @@CollegeHacked thank you so much! 🏆🫶🏼🥹 I really believe that bc things have been much easier when navigating and I’m more confident when I’m submitting assignments which makes me spend less time on reviewing and revisions. It’s like okay, I’ve done it and excelled, I can this time too. Plus reading the expectations and rubrics (like you guys told us) has really expedited the whole process for me. UMPI also emailed me yesterday to apply for the “2 for 1 degree completion scholarship”! When admitting to their school I had Ms Sue White and Nicki Enlow go above and beyond for me! My school in my hometown lost my high school transcripts and was basically telling me “oh well” when they couldn’t find it. I was homeschooled for hospital home bound my senior year bc I was pregnant. 🤰 It was new and they stopped doing it and the lady over it retired. Well Ms Susan White isn’t the one to play around with! She called the Board of Education school and got MY TRANSCRIPTS!!! Now mind you, this is a PUBLIC school system and board of education that did me like that. I think Ms Sue scared the hell out of them 😂👏 She made sure I got through admissions. Her and Nikki Enlow. Enjoy your long easy now 🍿🫢

    It can indeed be confusing when a degree certificate mentions "diploma" for a bachelor's graduation. In some regions, this discrepancy in terminology can cause misunderstandings, as the word "diploma" might not typically denote a degree in certain countries or educational systems.
    In my country, the term "diploma" is not synonymous with a degree. why they write diploma on degree certificate? UMPI also write diploma on degree certificate

      Our consultations are currently $400. The average college course is $1,200. If we help you hack even one single course (when we can typically hack 30 out of 40 classes in a bachelors degree), we’ve already paid you back what you paid us, what you paid the hacking platform, AND you still saved an extra $700 on top of that. So no, it’s actually too low a price point right now for the ROI we’re able to deliver. But we want to help as many people as possible :)
