Out of the seven students who participated in the Keiser University Flagship Campus Stock Portfolio Management Competition, Dennis showed the most profits in the six-week trading period in which each participant traded a theoretical portfolio with a starting value of $100,000.
My instructors believed in me. They were more than instructors, they tried to get to know you as a person and tried to understand your goals so they could push you towards them. Student services helped me find a job before I even graduated. Everyone was dedicated to my overall success.
