I always thought, I’m not going to a community college when I can go to this very well-known four-year university, but now I realize it does not matter where you go. I thought I was too big for Terra State, and now I am paying for it with all my student loans.

One of the best parts about Terra State is, that I am still using the education that I learned 20 years later in the field almost every day. I truly believe that Terra State helped me achieve my goal of working in the construction and engineering field by laying down the foundation to get to where I am today.

Terra State was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Earning my degree fit my schedule, it fit my family's schedule and it allowed me to grow in a way that I would never have thought was possible. If Terra State was a four-year institution, and I could receive a bachelor's degree, I would go back there in a heartbeat.

The advantage of a degree from Terra State is that each student has the opportunity to move on after you get a degree, whether that be transferring to another school or using the degree you earned to find a job. Since everything is so hands-on, you feel really prepared for what you are wanting to do next.

I think just being able to know that change is going to happen whether we like it or not and we just need to be able to adjust to that change. It sure does make a big difference when you have a great support system like Terra State.

The most appealing part to me was knowing if I passed and graduated from the College under the Mortuary Science Pathway that I would automatically have a seat at CCMS.
