"Having the opportunity to apply and be rewarded scholarships is truly priceless in my eyes. I really appreciate all donors and their financial support."

What do you like most about SNHU?

The numerous network opportunities availble to students.

How do the scholarships and financial aid you receive make it possible for you to attend SNHU? Specifically, how have scholarships made a difference?

The scholarships I receive have a major impact on my future financial health. Every scholarship rewarded to me makes a difference with lower my student loans and financial stress. I value all scholarships I am rewarded because they will allow me to focus more on my future goals rather than the burden of student loans I would not be able to afford.

What would you say to those who donate to support student scholarships?

Thank you for everything you have done. Having the opportunity to apply and be rewarded scholarships is truly priceless in my eyes. I really appreciate all donors and their financial support. I personally plan on returning the favor in the future by donating back and providing scholarships of my own. I would want them to know they have inspired me to want to do the same if not more than what they have done for me.

Why did you choose Southern New Hampshire University?

It was a local college, a good reputation nationwide, and I was given the most financial support compared to other universities.

What was your hope in receiving a college education?

I was hoping to develop a strong professional network and a better understanding of what it takes to get to the top. I wanted to see what it was like to compete with other students as well as work together to achieve set goals. Personal growth is what I want to take from my college experience.

What inspired you to choose your area of study? What is your dream job?

I wanted something broad and useable for several different directions because I wasn't sure about the kind of career I wanted. I want to be an entrepreneur of some kind, but I haven't fully found what I passionate about.

Who at SNHU (professor, coach, advisor, etc.) has been the biggest influence on your SNHU experience? What lessons did that person teach you?

Professor Bryan Bouchard had a major impact on my SNHU experience! He is a very simple, nice, and genuine guy. He answered all my class-related questions and was open to meeting with me to discuss real estate. He was very inspiring and I really appreciate his efforts put towards being a great teacher!

What do you find most challenging? How do you deal with this?

I have a hard time with being patient. How I deal with this is altering my focus on other activites I enjoy so I dont dwell on one thing.

What are you proudest of?

I am most of proud of developing and learning how to go get what I want in life. In the past I have always tried new things that have been afford to me, kept busy doing what is reccomended, and all-in-all none of that do I regret - but I am beginning to know what I want and understand I need to take action to get what I want.

In what ways do you want/hope to stay involved as an alumnus/a?

I will always reach out to those who have graduated through social media like LinkedIn, Facebook, etc.
