For many students from more advantage background and establish lineages, entering college may seem trivial and the expected thing to do. However, for many children of immigrants, entering college is a privilege. For my family, this meant hope and for myself this meant an opportunity of a lifetime. Ever since that acceptance letter to SEBS EOF in 2015, I have continued to push forward, endurance be great, daring to be a challenge. Despite fallen countless times, I have kept moving forward keeping my family, my “why” with me, always.

SEBS EOF was like my family away from my family, in that I found a lot of my lifelong friends there and had more personal relationships with the advisers they provided a strong academic support which helped me succeed in my classes, along with teaching me what I needed to do to apply to medical school. Thank you SEBS EOF!
