What was your motivation for staying in school and completing college?"To stay the course, as the investment in yourself and your education is far worth it. It can be very difficult to have little guidance arriving to college and trying to figure it all out on the fly. For many students at IU Indianapolis, there is a community for first-generation students. IU Indianapolis is designed to truly help all students transition as best as possible. I still am great friends with all the students I started with at IUPUI (now IU Indianapolis) who were all first-gen students." —Assistant Director of Admissions, Kelley School of Business
