STUDENT TESTIMONIAL
The positive experiences I have encountered while earning my online degree are numerous. First, I have met so many diverse and unique individuals from all over the world while live chatting in my classes. I have heard so many views and ideas on it topics and even continued to maintain friendships outside of school with some. Second, I am able to complete my tasks and assignments and maintain the best GPA of my college career. Although the courses are rigorous, going at my own pace in my own home, coffee shop, or even local park has allowed me to feel confident and accomplished.
