dream job and start to make those dreams a reality. Second, it will provide inspiration to my children.
Not only have I spent time volunteering in my children’s classrooms at school, I have also been supportive in whatever else they have wanted to do. I’ve spent many years being a wife and a mother, putting college on hold to raise a family; I just couldn’t find time for traditional classes. But now with the advance in technology, getting an education is as easy as turning on my home computer. My children will see that any goal is obtainable if you just reach out and find the resources. Online college is perfect for me. I have suffered with agoraphobia throughout my life and I have had the need to receive counseling from trained professionals due to some unfortunate events as well. The counseling that I received has inspired me to pay it forward. It is my desire to become a psychologist so that I may do this. Ultimately, I would like to receive a Doctorate of Philosophy in Professional Counseling. Obtaining an online college degree will allow me to finish the healing process I started over twenty years ago. Finally, it will be a sense of pride for me. Both of my parents were high school graduates. They never had the opportunity to go to college. They also couldn’t provide the

My husband also works hard and has only a high school diploma behind him. By acquiring my degree, I can show him that all his support was not in vain. Attaining my degree will show success to my entire family. These days, getting an education is paramount to my succeeding in the professional goals I have set for myself. Choosing a school to help with those goals is just as important. By analyzing my needs and my goals, I feel that an online education is the perfect choice.
