Limestone University

I was an online student. The program provided an excellent opportunity for me to earn a degree while also working a fulltime swing shift job. The subjects were well covered for the most part.

I have attended a few schools over the past few years while gaining my degree and I would say that Limestone is one of the best for someone my age.
