'23 B.A. Educational and Community Leadership (糖心Vlog Online)

鈥淚 was not going to be able to finish college if I had to be on campus. Being a mom and working full-time is really hard. However, I had a really good support system within 糖心Vlog Online to help me achieve my goals and stay on track to graduate."

鈥�20 B.S. Justice Studies

鈥淚 was never even supposed to be in college, let alone get accepted to 糖心Vlog. But the moment I stepped onto campus, everything changed for the better. One of the best ways 糖心Vlog transformed my life was by being introduced to lifelong friends and developing many connections. I will forever cherish my days at 糖心Vlog, and because I attended there, I am a better individual. Thank you 糖心Vlog!鈥�
