Overall, my experience at SUNY Empire State College has been excellent! I enjoy the interactions I have with other students and College Instructors. In general the instructors are helpful and conveniently available to answer any questions and concerns. Additionally, the course load is designed appropriately for students like myself who are employed.
Fortunately, I can say that my Sociological Research goals has been shaped upon the quality of this course instruction. Fall 2021, I look forward to pursuing a Masters of Arts in Social and Public Policy with a specialization in Poverty Alleviation.
To say the least, I never seen a college program that engaged it learners with such quality and meaningful work. I am enthusiastic that I made the decision to attend SUNY Empire State College. I can't express into words how much I am looking forward to more insightful learning in the Graduate Program.
I am proud to say this experience has immensely influenced my future goals (.

I am a full time employee, full time mother of two and a full time student. I am currently entering my last semester to achieve my bachelors in business management. Empire State College made my dreams possible with flexibility and great mentoring system. I would recommend highly!
They are incredibly helpful and understanding to the non-traditional student. My mentor has been incredibly helpful and reached out anytime I had a question. I am thankful for the availability of online classes as well. Being single mother of two boys is difficult alongside working two jobs. I appreciate the fact that my schedule has been set up in a way that is manageable or me. I cant wait to graduate, and to have my sons there so that they can in hopes graduate from college as well. Higher education is not common in my community and I am looking to change that outcome by leading the way and setting the BEST example I can for my boys. They mean the world to me and they need to see a person that looks like them going after their goals. This scholarship will help me pay for school and also assist with completing my degree with little to no student loans. I currently have my pre-school teaching certification and I am so thankful for it.
