Student Testimonials

Here’s what our students had to say about their ACE experience.

Yasheka Lewis

Yasheka Lewis

B.S. in Healthcare Administration 

Master of Public Health 

“I love that I can take my class with me wherever I go and able to set my own schedule. Also, at the end of every class, we get at least a one-week break to breathe and recuperate. The program is set up for our success.” 

Kasey Harkness

Kasey Harkness

wM.Ed. in Curriculum and Instruction 

“I resisted enrolling in a graduate program for a long time because, between my full-time job and my family, I couldn’t fathom how I would make the time for one or scrounge up the money. Then I found ACE! ACE was affordable and fully online, which meant I could do my coursework from anywhere and control the pace and timing of my week. Going through my program without having to sacrifice my family time was invaluable, and what I learned was immediately applicable in my profession.” 

Nate Failing

Nate Failing

Ed.D. in Leadership 

“I really appreciated the structure of each class. They all had the same general structure, so it made it easier to adapt to each class, each term. Plus, as a father working a full-time job, I was able to do the work when the kids went to bed. So I never missed time with them.”
