B. Christian Randolph

Class of '25

Doctor of Business Administration - South University's Online Programs

“I chose the business program of study because I am a healthcare professional, entrepreneur, and business operations specialist with a real estate background. South University offers a variety of programs related to these fields. I was able to merge my strengths to reach my career and educational goals.”

Bachelor of Business Administration-South University, Online Programs

“They (SU Instructors) would keep me on track with what classes I had upcoming and help prepare me for what to expect in the class. They would try to understand my life outside of school and make suggestions of how best to navigate the program to ensure that I was at all times poised mentally to endure the class at hand.”

Annette Tornberg

Class of '13

Associate of Science in Business Administration-South University, Online Programs

“I feel that if I did not go back to school to further my education, my job search would not have come to this conclusion. I attended college twice in my twenties, but dropped out due to lack of enthusiasm. Going back to school and completing it online is why I am now finally employed. Don’t give up. You are never too old to learn.”
