I am a fulltime, online student majoring in business with a focus in financial decision making. The grant I receive from the Strategic Partnership program has made a major impact in my ability to further my education. The benefits from this program made it so I could afford to go to school. My experience with BVU so far has been great, my professors are friendly, and I am learning a lot, all on my own time!
