We Help you Finish Your Doctorate

Why We Exist

A Personal Journey Inspired Halback University

Dr. Kim Halback knows firsthand how challenging it can be to finish a dissertation. It took her nearly 10 years to complete her doctorate due to life events, changing requirements, and institutional barriers. After finally earning her degree, she realized that countless other students face the same struggles.

40–50% of students who start a doctoral program never complete it. Halback University was created to change that.

Determined to create a better path, Dr. Halback founded Halback University. She built a program with structured timelines, dedicated mentorship, and supportive communities to help students finally cross the finish line and earn their doctorate.

At Halback University, our mission is personal: to make sure no capable student is left behind at the dissertation stage.
