Testimonial
There is still more to discover, even though I am considered middle-aged. I think in choosing this program, in choosing to study rather than finding work, for me I feel good with this decision. In any decision you make, you have to really feel good about it so even if you fail, you know you’re going to try to overcome it rather than fail at that decision. You’ll do all the things you can, because you chose that decision happily. This wasn’t made for me, I won’t just give up and do something else.
