 "I am so glad to have attended this paralegal program because I received a fantastic job offer. Not only that, but this program gave me many new opportunities, such as doing an internship at an IP law firm."
~ Mikiko Iwamoto, Online Paralegal Studies Graduate
"Every single professor has simply been awesome. Each of them is truly an expert in the field and truly cares about each student and the program as a whole. With the knowledge I gained in class, I feel that I can excel with any project I come across at my job. This program has put me ahead of my peers and I use the knowledge and skills I gained in the program daily."
~ David Berg, Online Paralegal Studies Graduate, MPS '08
 "A prestigious school with a rigorous course load. Professionally, I have recently been interviewed and selected for a promotion within the federal government as a result of the completion of my Master's program in this field of study. Personally, I feel fulfilled to have worked hard to obtain a graduate degree from a well-known university, and to have graduated at the top of my class.
The instructors and facilitators were easily accessible, and despite the long-distance, would quickly respond to any questions or concerns. The faculty members were friendly, willing to assist, and prompt when I needed assistance with class registration, payment of fees, and ordering graduation materials!
As a result of completing this program, I now have an education and Master's degree to back the knowledge I have obtained while in pursuit of my career goals. The Master's in Paralegal Studies has opened the doors for future promotions and workplace achievement."
~ Adrianne Blake, Online Paralegal Studies Graduate
 "The GW online master's program provided me with a top quality education that was as flexible as my busy schedule required. The assignments for the standard six week classes were provided on day one of a class which allowed me to plan in advance to preclude any workload crises. Most classes also followed a standard format where specific like exercises were due at the same time during the week providing for a predictable routine. The exercises all built upon and reinforced each other. The approach also helped with retention in that there was ample repetition both within a single class and throughout the program.
I travel extensively in my full time position. I was always able to access course information regardless of where I traveled and what time zone I was in. The breaks in between the classes were spaced nicely which allowed me to both catch up on other obligations and be ready for the next class.
I was not planning to become a paralegal at the start of the program but simply learn more about the law than I could in a traditional MBA type program. The information I learned has helped provide exactly the depth of knowledge I was looking for when I started the program. The knowledge has provided a perspective that would not have been available to me otherwise. The program also helped develop both my research skills and writing that has been invaluable in a wide variety of professional and personnel endeavors.
I was impressed with how fast all the professors provided feedback on assignments and questions. The instructors and facilitators were always available via email questions. The level of support was outstanding. I frequently received an introductory phone call from the student services advisor providing me with contract information and an assurance that they were available throughout the term should I need help."
~ William Fell Jr., Online Paralegal Studies Graduate
"Increased my technical expertise in my field, enhanced my research skills and increased my self confidence. The level of support was very good. I was always able to reach someone by email or phone at virtually anytime."
~ Cynthia Mills, Online Paralegal Studies Graduate
"A master's degree from a prestigious university has been a lifelong dream. I would not have had the opportunity to pursue this dream due to my home and work schedule without the online Master's Program in Paralegal Studies offered by GW. I advocate attending the online master’s program to all my paralegal colleagues. This program takes the paralegal past the basics. The material is designed to develop and foster analytical and analogous reasoning."
~ Diane Norris Morgan, Online Paralegal Studies Graduate
