“I wouldn’t have gone to college right away without my scholarships. I could’ve used a student loan. But you need a co-signer with good credit, and I didn’t have one. Now I’m more confident. Instead of thinking I can’t do something, I always think I can do it now. All that hard work I did in high school was worth it. A huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders because I have the amazing opportunity to get my bachelor’s degree.”
