Hear from Jahmar about how University of Phoenix provided the support -- from academic counselors to a host of online resources -- that helped him reach graduation.
Let's meet Jamahr Robinson, hailing from Florida.
Jamahr attended school while completing the police academy and raising a family with so much going on.
He nearly quit on multiple occasions, but he credits support from his academic
counselor and a host of online resources with helping him reach graduation.
Over to you, Jamahr.
Thanks for the introduction, Alex.
As a hard working father and husband, I've always stood on the principle of putting my family first.
However, in order to accomplish having a successful career, I knew I needed a university and would have my back the way my family always does.
The University of Phoenix did exactly that.
In fact, the enrollment process was easy and I was supported by a knowledgeable and experienced academic counselor who helped me to evaluate my short term and long term goals to complete my program.
I quickly understood that nothing is unachievable, not even having a complicated work schedule or a busy home life.
My academic counselor always had a solution.
The online academic platform also provided access to a lot of resources, tools and services wherever and whenever I needed it.
For example, the University of Phoenix has an online student library where you can get access to numerous peer scholar materials, digital textbooks, research articles.
You can even get connected to an online tutor that can assist you with a specific subject area.
Two of my favorite features in the online portal for students are the 24 hour tech support and a selection of online student communities that you can join to connect with other pieces in your program.
The University of Phoenix has allowed me to enhance my career tremendously without missing important parts of my family life.
In fact, while I attended the University of Phoenix, I was able to continue working in my career as a police officer in my local community, all while welcoming my newborn son into the world.
You see, it doesn't matter which manager you choose or how busy your life is.
The University of Phoenix will be with you while you are in pursuit of your academic goals.
Trust me, I know this because I'm a Phoenix.
Back to you, Alex.
Thanks for sharing your story.
You are academic advisors clearly help students stay connected to the university wherever they are, and the support doesn't stop there.
Students also have access to financial advisors who can help find ways to save time and money on a degree throughout their educational journey.
Thanks for sharing.
