Talk to many mentors and peers and visit as many colleges as you can.

Make sure the college of your choice has many services to help you succeed. You are not alone!

Despite the institution’s youth in comparison to other institutions across the country, �㽶����ֱ�� is known as a pioneer in its determination in providing caring support to students. There are many resources within the college to meet students where they are so that they may succeed as inventive trailblazers in their fields.
