I figured it was about time I posted an update!
 
Since I last wrote, I have…
  • Completed all of my lessons, yay!
  • Performed five case studies on friends and family, which were submitted for review on June 6th!
  • Taken my final exam, only missing one questions, earning me a 97%!
 
So now I am just waiting to receive feedback on my case studies.  The teachers are a tad backed up with grading, so I told them I didn’t mind waiting, but truth be told…I am so anxious to find out!  Fingers crossed, all is well and I will obtain my certificate!
 
I have already been given the go ahead to start on my Scholars Program, but I have decided to take a little break in between programs.  It took me about 14 weeks to complete the Foundations in Aromatherapy program.  I don’t think that is a bad time frame at all, but could have been sooner if I had been able to keep up my pace.  Towards the end I was not able to devote as much time to it as I would like.  With things being hectic at work and other summer activities planned, I am planning to break for a while and start back maybe early Fall refreshed and ready to rock this Scholars program!

Below are a couple photos capturing the exciting moments leading up to the finale!

Hi Megan,
I stumbled on your blog while researching for reviews on School of Aromatics Studies.

I see that your last post was 6 months ago. Can you share an update on how the programs have helped you and what you did with the certification and if distance learning is worth considering over live, in classroom lessons? What made you decide on this school? I am considering between this and Aromahead Institute. I prefer the way the website looks for this one over Aromahead but I'm not sure about the quality of the contents and lesson structure etc.

Any insights and further sharing will be much appreciated! :-)

Hello Elisa!

First of all, I am so excited that you are looking into the School of Aromatic Studies!

I have certainly been meaning to post an update, as you are not the only one to ask me about them recently!

I will try to post that update here in the next few days and hopefully answer your questions. If I miss anything, you are more than welcome to email me through the contact tab at the top.
