DON'T JUST TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT
Hear From Students
I left school twenty years ago to raise my family, but earning my degree was always a goal I kept in mind. Going away to college wasn’t a realistic option for me, so having an online program that brought education to me made it possible to finally finish my degree and achieve my goal.
I actually set out with two parallel goals: to earn my degree and to do it debt-free. LSUA’s online program made that possible. With the support of grants and a small scholarship, I was able to reach both goals—and I'm equally proud of both!
