Woman With a Mission

Carla Thomas is not your typical student. First of all, she already has a degree in medicine. Ms. Thomas is a doctor, a family doctor, and if you live in or near Anniston, Alabama, you could become one of her patients.

If I ever made it through medical school, I'd consider myself lucky. But Dr. Thomas has more ambition than I. She wants to become the surgeon general of the United States.

In order to reach that goal, Dr. Thomas wants to earn a Ph.D. in healthcare administration. But family doctors don't really have the time to go off to a distant campus. That's where capella university enters our story.

Capella is a fully online university with 17,900 students who, like Carla Thomas, don't have time to leave home to earn an advanced degree.
