"The graduate program at Tiffin University has helped me to prepare for a new career as a Police Executive and has given me the tools and credentials needed to obtain the executive positions I desire. Fortunately, being a member of the Fraternal Order of Police (FOP), I was eligible to receive an FOP discount which assisted me greatly with tuition cost. "

“My experience with Tiffin University so far has been nothing but positive. The program and the required courses I took seemed well-constructed and challenged me both academically and creatively. I have learned with and from my fellow students, although I feel that given the fact that the program is all online, I have learned the most from the research I had to conduct for the written assignments. I look forward to applying what I have learned at Tiffin on the job.”
