Deborah Roy

RN to BSN

Caring for Patients Worldwide On Nursing Missions

Where I Started

I found myself as a single mom when my daughters were young. I was afraid I wouldn't be able to provide a good life for them and decided I needed to go to school to get my RN. 24 years later, I decided I wanted to finish my bachelor's.

Why I Needed SCOPE

I had to work full time, but this program was wonderful. I was able to do it a class at a time every seven weeks, and it worked out very well to be a working nurse and be able to further my degree at the same time.

What I Wanted to Achieve

I'm currently attending Vanderbilt University, pursuing my master's degree so that I'm able to be a nurse practitioner. This is going to allow me to treat patients all over the world, and that is just a privilege to me that I never thought possible.

Grace Simonelli

Professional Studies, BS

From Waitress to Upper Management

Where I Started

I started school at Bob Jones in 2006, and I was not sure which path I wanted to go in my career. I changed majors a couple of times, and when I dropped out in 2010, it felt impossible to have a stable, solid career. It just felt so far out of reach.

Why I Needed SCOPE

Being a single mom, it seemed really overwhelming having to figure out childcare and attending classes. I really wasn't willing to give up time with my son in order to finish my degree. It was important to me to find something that was completely online.

What I Wanted to Achieve

Being in a management position made me realize that I needed to go back and finish my degree. Within a year of getting the degree, I was promoted at my job. It really unlocked the potential for me to go anywhere and for me to continue to work my way up within the company.

Chapman Harwood

Sport Administration and Coaching, MA

Changing Lives Through Sports

Where I Started

I graduated from Bob Jones University with a BS in Sport Management in 2020 and played on the basketball team at BJU. My assistant coach suggested I go into the master's program, and I was inspired by my dad who has his master’s degree in Sport Administration and has worked in coaching and administration his whole career.

Why I Needed SCOPE

I am currently working as a full-time Graduate Assistant at Bob Jones Academy in the athletic department and as an assistant basketball coach at the university. SCOPE offers all 30 credits of my master’s degree online. The class structure fits my schedule perfectly.

What I Wanted to Achieve

My passion in life is reaching as many kids as I can. I want to mentor them—in sports and in bigger ways. Eventually, I'd like to be an athletic director or maybe even a coach at the college level.
