“I’d love to share my experience at Eastern Oregon University with Credit for Prior Learning. I spent most of my college-age years acquiring life and work experience in Texas, Utah, Oregon, and Brazil. Returning to school at EOU in my early thirties was daunting, but earning college credit for the knowledge I’d gained was very empowering. Not only did I realize just how valuable my background was, but I developed the vocabulary to put what I’d learned into words that reflected a college-level education.”
