EdD Student Testimonial – Kelly Mounts
Kelly Mounts chose the Doctor of Education (EdD) program at the University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences (USAHS) because it fit family life. As a wife and mom of two very young children with a full-time job, Kelly needed a program that let her be home at night to tuck the kids into bed while still providing for them during the day.
Online learning made that possible, letting Kelly keep working and stay present for family while earning the degree. What stands out just as much is how responsive the faculty are. When Kelly emailed a professor at 11:30 one night, the reply came right back, and that kind of timely feedback has been the norm.
For working parents weighing a doctorate, it’s a reassuring look at how the EdD’s online format and available faculty can fit around a full life.

I’ve got two very young children, and it allowed me to still, you know, keep my life with them. I was able to still be at home at night with them and tucking them into bed, and I was able to have a full-time job and provide for them during the day. [00:00:24] So University of St. Augustine allowed me to continue learning online while, you know, pursuing my other avenues with work and family. I love the University of St. Augustine. It’s been a great experience. The professors are amazing. They are always there. I emailed my professor last night at 11:30 and he emailed me right back.
