Online Certificate Programs

“The first reason that I chose SAA online, is a practical reason. I wanted to pursue a Master's degree in Student Affairs, while continuing to work full time. UW-La Crosse's program fit perfectly.

Secondly, the reputation of UW-La Crosse's SAA program (both on campus and online) is important to me. As an undergraduate I contemplated moving directly into grad school after graduation and had done quite a bit of research on degrees available across the country. Although I chose a slightly more alternative route – UW-La Crosse and this program have always been on my radar.

Lastly, I chose this program because of the support and suggestions from my colleagues and supervisors at UW-Stout. Some of my colleagues here at UW-Stout are recent and excited graduates of last year's cohort. The program couldn't have come more highly recommended.

On a less serious note – I am personally excited to give my dad a little more support our family as a UW-LaCrosse grad. My mom received her Special Education degree from UW-Eau Claire where both my sister and I have received our undergraduate degrees. My dad (who received his Business degree from UW-La Crosse) has been waiting for years to have another one of us on "his team" in the UW-System battle.”
