I am Alton, I am a Leo who loves being loved and being the center of attraction. I am from a huge family; my parents have six children and I am the 40 years old baby. My education journey has been a long wild ride, I have started college on so many occasion then stop because of financial issues or because I hit a bump and decided that this is not what I want to study then I change my course of study then end up having a course or some credit which is now useless to the new degree path, this went on for years until I finally decided that I will become a Nurse. My journey got easier at this time because I am now a mature adult who finally got his head screwed on properly. upon completing my prerequisites for Nursing my GPA dropped to 3.4 this made my life harder as now the schools that I wanted to attend won’t take me with that low GPA and that kind of put me back to square one, now I’m lost with more scattered credits but still no bachelor’s degree. Now I find myself at the crossroad where if I want to do nursing, but I now need to find the big money for a private school. I later found out about Grand Canyon through a friend and upon submitting my many transcripts from my schools I was presented with my option and I took the shortest route to a bachelor which has nothing to do with nursing but at least it will give me a sense of accomplishment to push onward to becoming a nurse in the future. I do not believe that I love school, but I love a challenge and I need to complete my first degree so that I can be a role model to my kids and my other sibling who also finds it hard to complete school. It’s a hard road but it can be done with little harder work and dedication to your dreams. My job career path has been a rough ride, I migrated to the USA with nothing behind my name then I did my GED and that opened a door halfway for me to start making few Dollars, but I needed more than just a few Dollars. After wasting my life for my first few years in America I met a Navy recruiter who offered me a chance to change my life, at age 30 plus I joined the Navy and my life was changed forever. I now have the experience of the US Navy and that helps me to run my own business with discipline, though I do not need a bachelor’s to run my own business, I owe it to myself and my kids to finish something that I had started. In my spare time, I play Call of Duty with my son, whenever we get tired of doing that, we go to the movies and or mess up the house so that mom has some more work to do. My family and I had the opportunity of traveling a few countries to include Puerto Rico, Jamaica, Grand Cayman, and Canada, I have been many other places with the military but wish not to mention them.

Grand Canyon and Ms. Is a lifesaver, she took my Scattered courses and use them to guide me into this short degree path, I now only need 48 credit to my degree, being the slow coach that I am I will use about 18 months to complete my bachelors. Completing this degree is a personal goal, it will boost my ego once I’m done....
