"I chose to take all of my classes online because as a single mother, I needed a more flexible schedule. I was surprised by how helpful all of my professors and school leaders were during my time here despite the majority of my college experience being virtual. Professors are only an email or message board question away, and some of the professors hold virtual study sessions for students."
