I'm Free!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
After 4.5 grueling years with summer classes every single year, I finally finished my degree at Rutgers. I'm happy to say I'll be leaving there owing very little in tuition as I paid as I went.

I first started out as Biomedical Engineering major but unfortunately had to change due to the inability to balance work and school. I had to make ends meet so quitting work wasn't an option, and I also had trouble obtaining loans in general.

After almost failing out from engineering I switched to criminal justice with a minor in econ. I mostly did it just to graduate at a relatively decent time, as I still will pursue something in finance or IT since I work with computers now.

I'm just relieved, so now I can relax for a week and then start the next stage of life. :cool:

Congrats!!! I have not gone back to school yet for fear of thinking I know what I want to do and then changing and screwing myself out of time and money.
Have pride in your accomplishment.

I am so jealous. 2 more semesters at NJIT. Hate...NJIT. :mad:

On the plus side, did you line up any jobs/interviews yet? I need to find me an internship or something this summer.

Congratulations You will never regret it. Good luck in your future.

I don't remember who said it, but the quote is:

Find something you love doing and you will never have to work the rest of your life.

Good job! I'm also working my way through school and nearly killing myself in the process (30 hours school, 30 hours work, + homework per week), so I know the feeling.
