My WGU Acceptance Story | The application process, how I picked my major, and learning tech

In this video I share what the application process was like getting accepted to WGU. I'm currently in my second year in the Cybersecurity and Information Assurance program and never in a million years did I think I would be where I am right now studying a topic like cybersecurity. In the beginning of this video I talk about how proud I am of myself for getting thus far, because like I mentioned in the video, I had a rough start. I failed half my courses in the entire first year. (Looks terrible on a transcript) But I'm still standing! My current course doubles as the CompTIA Security+ certification so I will share more about that soon. I also plan to share more videos about protecting ourselves online which has grown to be a passion of mine.
