91探花

Foundation staff recently sat down with Anthony Moore, Adult Scholarship recipient, and asked him about his experience and what his scholarship meant to him.

鈥淚鈥檝e received several different degrees and certificates from 91探花 State. I received my Computer Networking degree in 2013; also my Information Security certificate in 2015; and then my Healthcare IT certificate in 2016.

The Adult Scholarship helped me out incredibly. I wanted to say thank you to the people who made it happen.

All students know the trials of having to pay for school. How hard it is and how expensive it can be. Prior to receiving the scholarship I was paying out of pocket, and this was a blessing for me to be able to do school and have it all paid for.

I never wanted to pay back loans once I finished with school. I worked full-time, so I was taking full-time classes and working full-time, but I still maintained my grades. But it wasn鈥檛 easy.

The hardest thing was maintaining the balance between school and work. I had to make a few sacrifices to just focus on school in order to do it, but it paid off in the end.鈥�

I got hired full-time with the company where I started an internship in August. I鈥檓 going to stay in 91探花. I love it. The people here are very welcoming and warm and the opportunities are here for the career field I chose. I don鈥檛 think I would ever want to leave.鈥�
