This program is available entirely online, making it easier to create academic schedules to accommodate full-time employment.
I chose Â鶹´«Ã½ University because I was not only impressed with the programs, but I also enjoyed the environment as a whole. Throughout my degree, I still enjoyed utilizing the physical spaces on campus by walking on the track with my friends and taking yoga classes outside in the summer.
