I applied for a full scholarship to University of Phoenix and just found out I got the scholarship!!! It was for breast cancer survivors or their families. I can't believe it, but I won!! Yay!! I'm gonna get my MBA!!!

I have a neighbor that just completed her bachelor's degree from University of Phoenix. They are a great way to get your degree done quickly and efficiently, although they're usually more expensive (at least than the state universities here in CA), but now you've taken care of that obstacle!

I'm still trying to get my bachelor by going to night school, but I had to apply for an academic leave to make sure I could concentrate on my fight right now. Sometimes I feel like I'll never finish.

Congratulations!!!

I think this is just wonderful. You go and get that MBA and I will live vicariously through you. There just has to be an occasional upside to this and this would definitely qualify. So happy for you.

www.phoenix.edu and look under scholarships. The deadline for this one has expired but hopefully they will offer it again. There may be some other colleges offering similar scholarships. Good luck!!!

Amazing! I am so happy for you. The University of Phoenix is an online univeristy isn't it? I've taught for Purdue and Ivy Tech..and some courses have been on-line. It's kind of fun to be able to sit in your sweats with a a cup of tea and go to class. :)

Great news, Elizarose! I know someone who finished her BA with University of Phoenix, and she was busy all the time. I admire anyone who does this online and especially someone who is working at the same time.
