STUDENT TESTIMONIAL
I chose the online route because the traditional undergraduate degree was a heavy load for me to carry, especially as I was working myself through school, living 1,000 miles away from home, and starting a rugby club. After being states away while my brother was in a major vehicle accident, my uncle passed away, and my best friend was hospitalized for months, I feel at ease knowing that at the drop of a dime, I can return home and still continue my studies. I hope to take advantage of the online program to learn business tactics through mobility of techonology. This includes app development, organizational skills, and professional interactions in the most creative and active social realm–the internet!
