Success stories

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.

Sylvia Rushing 2010
Sylvia Rushing Grad Alumni
Class of '10
Bachelor of Science in Nursing-South University, Columbia

“Well foremost, I am privileged to be the first in my family to get a bachelors degree and also, to graduate with honors from a really great program at South University is a great feeling as well. Dr. Morrow helped me see how nurses have a great ability to change lives, in very tangible and far reaching ways. I've known this gift a long time, but in studying for the BSN degree I learned that there is a whole new door opening to my career in nursing that I never knew existed”

Heather Schuckmann 2009

Class of '09
Bachelor of Science in Legal Studies-South University, Columbia

“When I left my military career, I had to refocus my goals for the future. My mom has always encouraged me that all things in life happen for a reason, and the hurdles are no reason to stop growing and learning. At South University, I've discovered more possibilities for using my talents in the future. The difference now is that my purpose here is not about passing a class or making a grade. My purpose is to make a difference by showing others what I know works in the world; that's why I love the practical teaching and learning environment at South. My professors don't just encourage me to try to operate outside of the real world, we learn, as students and professionals, how our experiences can affect real life changes in real circumstances.”

Samira Monet' Hayes 2013

Class of '13
Bachelor of Science in Nursing-South University, Columbia

“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.”

Mary Blevins 2014
Mary Blevins Grad Alumni
Class of '14
Master of Arts in Professional Counseling-South University, Columbia

“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.”

Jessica D Johnson 2015
Jessica Johnson Grad Alumni
Class of '15
Doctor of Pharmacy-South University, Columbia

“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.”
