The 4th Semester schedule has been released and approved! We’re getting ready to enter our senior semester at the Golf Academy of America, and in April, 32 of us are on-pace to graduate with an Associate’s Degree in Golf Complex Operations & Management. I’m not sure where we’re all going to end up, but I can’t wait to see.
Here’s the schedule. Notice, we don’t have class on Friday. That’s by design. Friday is a day to look for jobs and prepare for interviews. We want to keep the school’s 85% job placement percentage intact.
Of the more than 70 Education Corporation of America campuses and online programs spanning 20 states (and serving approximately 30,000 students), the Golf Academy of America Phoenix campus has had the highest placement percentage four years in-a-row.
