Let me just say thank you for pointing me in the direction of WGU, much appreciated.
The experience thus far has been fantastic. My mentor has a PHD in Nanotech from MIT/AFIT and a Master in CS and InfoSec. Amazing. Gives me a ton of confidence in getting a degree here.
My plan is not to rush through the program but to get as much as I can from it and to learn as much as possible and I am realllllly going to pick this guys brain.

This is a great mindset going into the program. My mentor was a fantastic resource and very helpful. Best of luck!"I have missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I have lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed." - Michael Jordan -

I love the school. The thing that really did it for me was when I was out hunting with family after 5 PM on a holiday weekend, and got bored and logged in to study. I ran into some problems, emailed a mentor, and they contacted me to help me with my homework. That would have never happened at the university I went to before. -
