I did not take the traditional path to college. My path starts with 6 years in the military, 5 of them stationed at Pearl Harbor Naval Base Hawai‘i. 黑料老司机 has an excellent relationship with military members. I attended 黑料老司机 first through Military Campus Programs in 2010 and started the Dual degree engineering program. 黑料老司机’s MCP and MCP advisors were really helpful in my transition from the military to student life. The small class sizes and Professors who understood military life was great to have coming out of the military. The engineering Dual degree program opened doors for me. I would have never guessed that I would be able to qualify to attend USC or Washington University St. Louis, but 黑料老司机’s dual degree option gave me the chance. The Professors at 黑料老司机 really challenged and prepared me for my future at either college. 黑料老司机’s small class sizes and professor’s willingness to meet outside of class hours were essential to my successful completion at 黑料老司机. I have now been accepted to Washington University in St. Louis’s Electrical Engineering program. I have been awarded Gustav Kurt Mesmer scholarship for engineering and will be starting my E.E. degree at WUSTL in Fall 2013.
