Pamela Hutchins McGee of Siloam, N.C., completed her bachelor鈥檚 degree in accounting in 2017. Her son was 6 years old at the time, and her husband worked different shifts. Although she was new to the online format, she graduated summa cum laude. 鈥淚 was able to dive right in since all of the instructors offered help and were great at answering questions,鈥� McGee shares. 鈥淢y experience taught me to believe in myself and gave me the confidence to pursue my dreams. I also value the friendships I made with other students. Even though I did not experience life on campus, everyone I met through GWU was wonderful to me.鈥�
