Thanks to her Penn College Dual Enrollment experience, Ashley got a taste of college-level coursework and earned credits to jumpstart her journey.
The dual enrollment courses I took helped me prepare for the pace and structure of a college course and helped me realize my strengths and weaknesses in my study habits.
I loved the hands-on experience I knew I would get here at Penn College. The College also had the perfect major for me.
Yes! Through Penn College, I have been awarded the Blaise Alexander Family Scholarship, an Open House Scholarship, and the Donald and Dorothy Stabler Scholarship.
I love the tight-knit community and the support from the professors. Everyone wants to see you succeed.
I am in the Army ROTC program and am hoping to become involved in other organizations.
I am hoping to work as a paramedic and potentially go to graduate school afterwards.
"Penn College also allowed me to obtain my EMT certification while I was still in high school, which gave me insight into my future career."
