“It was a leap of faith coming (back) to school and deciding I would try this.

I earn straight As; which allows me to receive scholarships so I can continue my education without saddling myself and my family with added debt.” —Laura Grout—Reduction in Student Borrowing

Keeping tuition low and active advising allow students to recognize the financial benefits of college upon graduation.
