Describe your college experience

My transfer was amazing and super easy. Since being here I have had great support for teachers and advisors and I have made plenty of new friends along the way.

Tip for future students

GO TO CLASS!! I know it gets boring or that 8am can be too much to get up for but once you stop going you aren’t going to want to go back! And be prepared to walk a while it will be all you do!

Favorite class

Graphics Communication was my favorite. I had a great teacher, easy work, fun classmates, and a very laid-back vibe.

Career goals

I plan on getting a masters in my degree, then going to work for NASA as an engineer or astronaut.

Ideal way to spend a free night

Free nights are had to come by for me so my favorite way to spend them is do something without a screen, reading, drawing​/​painting, or just a spa night.

High school or secondary school

I went to New Hope High School.

Previous college

I went to Itawamba Community College in Fulton. It was a super easy transition to MSU and all the advisors there are wonderful at their jobs and are super helpful.
