Here is a post that has been in the making for the last
month or so. But first let me tell you the backstory. (it won't take long I
promise.)
So about a month ago March 8th, to be exact I applied for
Liberty University Online. I really thought nothing of it at the time, I just
wanted to get some information about their Elementary Education program. So
within a couple of minutes, a lady called me and told me all about Liberty,
what they are about and etc. So I thought nothing about it at the time but then
I really started praying and asking the Lord about it. Should I attend LUO? It
would mean I could stay close to home, I could keep my job at Ryske's and I
could go to school and get my degree and still help out with my grandparents?
So I then began praying about it and I remember specifically one day I had my
journal out and I remember telling God, if this is where you want me to go I
will go. I remember from that moment, I told myself, if you get accepted,
Liberty is going to be where I am going to get my degree.
You may think oh this was an easy decision but this wasn't at all, it took time, thought, discussion with my mom and dad and prayer and countless times with God in worship.
So fast forward a month, countless emails, phone calls and
this past Friday I got a letter and on the front it said admissions decision enclosed.
With my heart beating and that week had been really rough for me, I open it and
I scream (sorry dad, didn't mean to scare you!). I got in, I got accepted, I am
an official Liberty University Online student. I get to register for classes soon. I am so excited for the classes I get to take in my degree, but I am really excited for the Bible classes that I get to take as well!
Now if some of you are like how can you attend a school but not live on campus? Well with LUO it is possible to obtain your degree in the comfort of your own home. I would love to study at Liberty in Virginia but I chose that it would be better for me to obtain it through Liberty University Online right here in Michigan.
So this fall I begin my journey as a Liberty Flame. I start my journey in getting my bachelors of science in elementary education in interdisciplinary studies. here i come LUO! I'm comin' for ya!
