Reviews:

Monica G. Resor
Degree programs were a perfect fit for me. The concentration in online programs will allow me to teach (my goal), and the instruction was top-notch. An online graduate programs are not for the faint of heart, and the coursework proved time-consuming and challenging. The professors are professional and easily-accessible. This was a valuable experience for me (I would do it over again), and I would recommend this university to anyone.
