MS Finance, Class of 2016

"I knew that I needed to separate myself from the other applicants, and that an advanced degree would allow for this."

My story comes from the need for a career change. With the tough job market, finding a new career path was increasingly difficult. I knew that I needed to separate myself from the other applicants and that an advanced degree would allow for this.

Having two young children, traditional classroom learning was not a possibility. I began the search for online programs. After much research of both schools and programs, I knew immediately that the best opportunity for me was at SNHU.

As I approached the start of my first term, I was petrified that I could not dedicate the needed time to learn and be successful. I consulted with my advisor and the admissions staff who assured me that the flexibility of the online classes would work. Now, as I enter my 5th term in an MS in Finance program, I agree that moving forward with SNHU Online was the best decision I could have made.
