ALUMNI PROFILE

As an undergraduate, taking my courses online was convenient to help me to stay in my hometown where I lived and worked as well as allowed me more time to gain relevant experience. I was able to keep my part time position with my job and do an internship relevant to my field all while completing full time enrollment as a student. I was able to finish my Bachelor of Science in Psychology degree in a timely manner with great grades and get into my graduate program right after graduating. It wouldn't have been possible without the fully online psychology courses and support of the faculty and advising team in the Psychology Department at UCF.
