Student Profiles

We invite you to view a few of our student profiles:

P. H. - Montana

Since receiving my B.A. degree in Communications a year ago, I can attribute one of my interviews to the fact that I am currently a federal employee, (which gives someone preference over someone else who is not a federal employee), and all my other interviews to "who I know", who got me the interview. In the creative field, there is still the necessity to be able to "show your stuff", produced by using the industry standards. Read more >>

M. B. - Florida

Before I heard of Almeda University, I assumed my higher education was OVER! After my disabling injury that prevented me from driving my own Semi-Truck over the road, something I had done for over 30 years at the time of my accident plus maintaining a dual career as a Firefighter for 25 of those years, I decided it was time to go back and get my College Degree. After all those years of experience which included driving over 3 Million Miles without an accident. Read more >>

R. S. - Massachusetts

Let me tell you of the confidence and credibility my BS in Facilities Management has brought me. I work for MIT Lincoln Laboratory in Lexington Ma. My Experience ranges over 35 years, as some one who has been a on again off again student attending night or full time classes has been hard. Almeda recognized my life experience and former education back round as a true representation of my skills. Read more >>

J. K. - Texas

I had thought about going back to school and getting my Masters, but work never really allowed it. Then the economic collapse began, the company I worked for (I was Vice President of Services) began experiencing issues with revenue and customer retention and in a short period of time they closed the regional office I ran and I was laid off. While this was certainly unnerving it was a blessing in disguise, as it allowed me. Read more >>

J. R. - Oklahoma

I graduated in 2002. My company provided me with the chance to obtain my degree which in turn has allowed me to increase in wages. I'm now retired, but plan on using my degree in a new career.

T. W. - Indiana

I would like to tell you how my degree from Almeda University has helped me since I received it. The degree itself has not really helped my current job whatsoever. However, I have a home-based business as a contract trainer for law enforcement. Once I started putting on my resume that I was a graduate of Almeda University with a Major in Criminal Justice, I started to get calls from agencies in other states to assist them Read more >>

R. E. - North Carolina

When I was hired for my current position, my previous industrial research work was considered as equivalent to a Masters degree, which was permitted under the rules at that time. A few years after I was hired the requirements for my position changed, and my bachelors degree alone was no longer acceptable. I was "grand-fathered" in and kept my position. But despite my having 16 years of experience, publishing two-dozen academic papers. Read more >>

E. M.  - Texas

I dropped out of school during the 11th grade because we had just integrated and it was a little much for me to digest at the time. I had gotten expelled for fighting with a teacher, so I decided to join the United States Army. While in the army I went on to complete my GED and soon started taking college course from a variety of colleges. My M.O.S. Military Occupation Skills was Infantry Read more >>

T. S. -  Colorado

After several months of unemployment, I was struggling to stay afloat. I am the single mother of two teenagers and was receiving no child support. I had gone through everything I had in savings, emptied my small 401K, and was not sure what to do next. With a heavy heart and a feeling of desperation, I was seriously considering my children's offer to take what they had in their small savings accounts. Read more >>

D. R. - Washington

My story begins in 1971 after I graduated from High School I entered the U.S. Air Force for four years.

Almeda University has brought me many new opportunities. After enrolling in the program in 2002 I was surprised with my results.

I've have worked many years in Business. I finally feel I was given the opportunity to share my work. Read more >>

R.V. P. - Manama, Bahrain

First of all I thank you for inviting me to express a few words about myself as an alumni of Almeda University. At present I am working as Chief Account of a big advertising group. My MD is very much impressed with my new degree and straight away he reimbursed me 50% of the course fee. Now a days he is introducing me to the people as a MBA degree holder. Read more >>

P. D. - Hawaii

Obtaining my MBA (in risk management) from Almeda has had a very positive impact on my career. I already held a Masters in Public Health (MPH) and was the health and safety coordinator for a moderate-sized public school district (over 1200 employees and 13,000 students) in the suburbs of Atlanta, Georgia. The Almeda MBA, with the emphasis on the business side of risk management and safety, unquestionably contributed to my obtaining. Read more >>

D. C. - Ohio

I attended a traditional college when I was too young to know what I wanted and how to get it. The counseling was horribly inadequate and I was trying to please my family, not myself. By the time I realized my real interest it was too late and my grades suffered. I used that experience as a building block and for the next 40 years, applied myself in my music. My accomplishments meet and, in most cases, exceed those who have numerous degrees from major institutions. Read more >>
