Student Testimonials
Antonella Scarsella, Texas
Bachelor of Arts in Accounting
“I came across a school that had been in establishment since 1918. When I contacted the school, I had a wonderful experience with Bryan Aylward, a Student Services Administrator. I did my research and found that Ashford University's entire curriculum for accounting was compatible with the state university's curriculum I was familiar with. I knew I was in the right place. My degree was going to come from a reputable university.”
Antonella maintains a 4.0 GPA and plans to graduate in December 2011 with a Bachelor of Arts in Accounting. After graduation, true to her ambitious personality, she aims to continue her education and earn her Master of Arts degree.
