Outstanding Education for Remarkable Careers

We're committed to helping our graduates make an impact in their professional and personal lives. We applaud our alumni and the difference they make. Check out what some of our Columbia graduates have to say.

Mary Blevins
Class of '14
Master of Arts in Professional Counseling
“My education has made a huge difference in my life! Without my degree from South University, I would still be working a dead-end job. The professors had worked extensively in the field and incorporated real-life experiences into the textbook material. For the first time in my life, I can genuinely say I am happy with my career and where I am in life.”

Samira Monet' Hayes
Class of '13
Bachelor of Science in Nursing
“If it was not for South University professors and clinical instructors, I would not have the foundation and knowledge-base to be a successful, critical thinking nurse. Education is the key, simple and true. If I had not earned my degree I would not be in the position I am in today, nor would the opportunities that present themselves to me be available.”

Jessica Johnson
Class of '15
Doctor of Pharmacy
“I decided to pursue a career in pharmacy my junior year of high school. I was afforded the opportunity to work in a retail pharmacy, where I saw first-hand the impact pharmacists have in their patients’ lives. The South University School of Pharmacy faculty and staff made my program a home away from home. They were with me through many ups and downs, and always pushed me to strive for excellence. I am excited to see what my future holds. I know the foundation received from the South University School of Pharmacy has well-equipped me for my future endeavors.”

Leah N. Williams
Class of '09
Master of Business Administration
“A few years ago, I decided that I wanted to take my career to the next level and realized that an MBA would allow me to achieve that goal. When I first showed interest in South University, I met my admissions officer, Shakeara Hudson. She made the application process as easy as possible, and then she checked on me continuously while I was a student just to make sure I was on track to complete my MBA. She even attended my graduation ceremony and spoke with me afterwards.”

Niya Warner Calderon
Class of '10
Master of Arts in Professional Counseling
“My professors at South University placed a great deal of knowledge and resources at my fingertips. My classes were never just a presentation of material; they were a discourse of experience where the instructor could answer the question directly when I asked.”
