I initially held myself back from signing up for classes at Post University. I registered at Post in 2014 shortly after my first degree completion. I held myself back because of work, I was a Drill Sergeant for 2.5 years in South Carolina and I felt taking on school work and working 14 plus hour days was too much. I realized it wasn’t after I heard numerous stories of how my peers completed multiple classes or even there degree while doing the same thing I was.
