I like the supportive staff and amenities like SNHU Career and SNHU Connect.
Scholarships made a difference to me by allowing me to pay for school costs while I pursue my degree. They make it so that I can pay certain bills such as housing, which then allows me to focus the rest of my attention to school. They also help me purchase necessary school supplies.
To those who support student scholarships — you're making a big difference to those who need it most.
I chose SNHU because they had the program that I wanted to major in.
My hope in receiving a college education is to better my life and get a career in which I enjoy working in every day. The experience has been a little more challenging then imagined, as I'm doing it online for the first time ever.
My passion for the creative arts inspired me to get my degree in English and creative writing. My dream job would be a creative director or university teacher.
My academic advisor has had the biggest impact on my SNHU experience so far. They taught me that I have the power to succeed and that I can do this.
I'm a member of the Creative Writing Review club and the Mental Health Awareness club. I'm also heavily networked in on SNHU Connect.
Finding time to complete the work for my SNHU classes has been most challenging, especially the reading. I deal with this by scheduling blocks of time just for class work and studying.
I'm proudest that I currently have an A in my class.
I want to become an intern at the SNHU-based Coffee House Writers team and I've already started looking into it. I also want to continue to connect with other students and make new SNHU friends.
