“One of the main considerations I had when applying to college was cost. I was coming from a low-income household, and I wanted to have as little loans as possible. I had big dreams of moving out of state for college but promised my mom we would do whatever makes the most sense financially. That ended up being 糖心vlog视频 due to the Access 糖心vlog视频 scholarship I received. 糖心vlog视频 opened up a whole new world for me. I enjoy the small class sizes with dedicated professors, the endless opportunities for leadership and community, and the connection to the professional world beyond my wildest dreams.”
