I have been out of high school for quite some time now, however, I would have had a stronger conversation with myself about staying in college to complete my college education and not have dropped out. I have always enjoyed school as I currently do. I have a deeper appreciation of the experience of wishing I had stayed when I had the opportunity and then embrace the challenges presented as an adult and family those types of responsibilities. There is the benefit I reconize with the opportunity I have now that I am better disciplined in my attitude(s) and time management and this has served me well since returning to school. I understand that it is because of my life experience I was able to identify that Sullivan University was a good fit for me.
