“I really fell in love with risk management through my internship in the Health Services Administration program. It was nice seeing the different aspects of the job. No two days are the same.”
“Just do it. It’s going to be challenging, and you’re going to have to juggle some things. But if I can do it, anyone can. You’re always going to be busy — but you won’t regret it once it’s done.”
"General studies was the best use of the classes I had taken. It gave me the freedom to take classes that relate to the career route I was on. The ability to do everything fully online was huge for me. I wouldn't have been able to finish if it weren't for that.”

“Be intentional and purpose driven. It’s not going to be easy, but it’s all about how you plan and go about your day-to-day life. Be structured and just know that if I can do it while juggling a business, so can you.”
"That flexibility is what enabled me to go back to school... I had a full-time job, so it was really important that I scheduled my time. You really have to be disciplined but having that room to juggle a career and family makes it worth it.”

“If you’re passionate about music, we’ve got a class for that. Sports? There’s a class for that, too. I’m teaching what I’m passionate about, and students can feel that. That’s what makes it click.”
“Now is your time. Just jump in and start doing it, even if it’s just one class a semester. When you look back when you’re done and see your strength, endurance, and persistence, you’ll have a different outlook on yourself.”
“The professors were prepared, knowledgeable, and easy to get a hold of. Nothing felt out of reach. I didn’t feel different because I was an online student. It was like I was going to a brick-and-mortar every day, even though I wasn’t.”
