A Student Perspective
"I came to Doane when I realized how easily the classes would fit into my schedule. I never felt pressure to hurry to finish my classes but was encouraged to complete my classes in my own time frame. When I told my employer that I was attending Doane, with the plan of completing my business degree, my employer was excited because of Doane's reputation."
