Gardner-Webb Online Programs in Nursing, Business, Education and College of Arts and Sciences Start on May 27

Switching to Online Classes Allows Junior Sydnie Hay to Finish her Undergraduate Degree and Work on Master’s in Business Administration

BOILING SPRINGS, N.C.—Through Gardner-Webb University Online Undergraduate programs, earning a bachelor’s degree is affordable and flexible. With several start dates during the year, students can choose when to begin and determine how many hours to take.

The next start date for various accredited programs is May 27. The new bachelor’s program in Exceptional Children Education (ECE) begins on this date, along with other programs in nursing, business, education, public service, and cybersecurity.

At Gardner-Webb, programs are taught by experienced educators with the online student’s needs in mind. Each student has access to career services, the Office of Christian Life and Service, disability resources, financial aid, library, tutoring, and technology services. In addition, students are paired with a success coach to answer questions along the way.   

Sydnie Hay switched to online classes when circumstances changed for her family. “When I lost my mom at the beginning of my junior year at Gardner-Webb, I thought I was going to have to abandon my studies completely to move home and take care of my two younger siblings,” she related. “Then, I learned about the Online Undergraduate Program and how smooth the transition was. I have been able to focus on my studies at the same time that I’m taking care of my siblings. I can do school around our schedule, and I find the online courses to be just as fulfilling.”

Hay will graduate with her Bachelor of Science in business management in May. Because she is dual-enrolled in the Advanced Master’s Program, she will finish her Master of Business Administration at the beginning of next year.

“I have had nothing but wonderful support from my professors and my academic advisor, Nicole Taylor, who helped me every step of the way,” Hay asserted. “This included scheduling as well as helping me graduate a semester earlier.”
