Dianemarie T.
Penn Foster Graduate, 2019
"I chose to enroll through Penn foster because of my busy schedule as a mom of three and a full-time employee. It would have been very hard to make time to attend school on campus. So, doing the program online, I was able to do the course at my own time and pace. That's what motivated me more to graduate."
