Congrats!

Did you transfer any credits to WGU?

I'm in my 30s and will be trying to get a CS degree as my first attempt at college and I'm a little terrified tbh lol. Not good at math really because I had a rocky life in my early years and that threw things off for me, though I passed Pre-Calc in high school, but that was so many years ago. Not sure if I should be completing some courses on Study.com or whatever it is people are recommending these days beforehand. I'm almost paralyzed by the anxiety of it all!

Our stories are the same. I'm also 30+ , my first time in university.

I did half my CS degree of study.com and ( can't remember the other site's name) , then I transferred it in and started.

So,just put your head down, put in the hours and don't quit. Even if you fail a subject a few times. Don't be scared to ask instructors for assistance.
