Description of Degree Earned
I started my higher educational journey at Kalamazoo Valley Community College. After dropping out of school at age of 16 years old in the ninth grade, I obtained my General Educational Development (GED) and enrolled in KVCC’s Associate Applied Science degree program with a focus on general business studies. I eventually earned my Associate of Applied Science and transferred to Western Michigan University. KVCC provided me with outstanding resources to grow and learn. In addition, it prepared me for my next educational challenge of being a transfer student at Western Michigan University. To learn more about KVCC’s business program click the link below.
