The Master of Arts in Leadership at Royal Roads University appealed to me for a variety of reasons: the flexible admission policy, the blended format of the programs that combined online course work and in-person residencies fit my life. The collaborative design of RRU’s experiential learning models aligned with my learning preferences and lifestyle, and enabled me to learn with some very extra-ordinary people and faculty. Royal Roads’ history as a military educational institution and the spectacular location with the beautiful gardens captured my heart and appreciation for nature.
