I'm most proud of being able to adequately provide for my daughter and encourage her to pursue a college education. ”

What does it mean to you to be a first-gen student?
It is pretty neat being a first-gen student and I’m hoping to pass on these experiences to my kid.

I didn’t really know what to expect when enrolling. Luckily there are plenty of willing, helpful people at CWC.

What advice would you give to future first-gen students?
Take your time and enjoy the experience.
