Tell us something about
your family and where you
are from?
I am a New Yorker.

and still reside in White
Plains, New York.

Where did you go to
college for your undergraduate
degree?
I earned my B.A. degree
in early childhood education from Temple University
in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

Why did you decide to
attend The College of New Rochelle?
I always
knew that my
education would not stop with just a B.A. I did some research on the
graduate schools
in Westchester and the programs
offered by
different colleges. Because I have my
bachelors in education, I wanted to go in a different direction with my
masters.
The College
of New Rochelle
is a well known and
reputable college that accommodates students who are fully employed.
Also, CNR offers
wonderful financial aid and scholarships. As I am paying for my own
education,
the cost of tuition is very important to me. The tuition at The College
of New
Rochelle is very reasonable, and the class schedule extremely flexible
with
courses offered in the evenings, on weekends, and during the summer
months. For me, CNR is the perfect college.

Where do you attend
classes?
I attend
classes on the
New Rochelle Campus.

What is your major?
My major
is Guidance and
Counseling.

Do you have any favorite
teachers?
All of
my teachers are
my favorite because they are all experts in different areas of guidance
and
counseling. They are all unique and bring different perspectives and
experiences
to the field of guidance and counseling.

What has surprised you the
most about the Graduate School?
I was
most surprised by
the flexibility of the course scheduling. The College really
understands the
needs of graduate students and does an excellent job of accommodating
them.

Do you have a job on
campus?
Yes, I
am a graduate
assistant in the graduate Division of Education.

When do you expect to
graduate?
I plan
on graduating in
December, 2006.

What are your career plans?
After I
graduate from
CNR I plan on working as a guidance counselor and eventually return to
college
for my doctorate.
