“When I talk about Royal Roads University, my eyes light up.”

“Royal Roads University’s Masters of Art in Interdisciplinary Studies program offered everything I wanted and I didn’t need to stall my professional endeavors in order to pursue additional education. I could stay in Edmonton with my partner and dog and I could specify the courses that would comprise my degree, allowing me to develop a program that suits my professional and academic needs and interests more than any other graduate program I encountered.

Having completed my undergraduate education through another distance learning program, my expectations of Royal Roads University have been completely surpassed. The course material is current, challenging and well suited to distance education delivery. For the first time in my academic career, I am excited about my course materials and course work. My academic confidence is growing and I am finding increasing opportunities to connect with the academic circles in my community – when I talk about Royal Roads University, my eyes light up.”
