::: Why did you choose to enroll at Northern Virginia Community College?
A few of the reasons that I chose to enroll at NVCC were cost, the convenient location, the small class size, and the diversity of the student body.

::: What were your goals and objectives when you entered Northern Virginia Community College? Have they changed or expanded since your enrollment? How and why?
My goals and objectives were and still are to maintain an academic standard, to learn more about other cultures and also to take part in as many organization and club activities as possible. For the past year and the half, I have met many of these goals and objectives at NVCC. I have joined many organizations, including the Student Business Association, and I have become a Student Ambassador. My education at NVCC is not limited to my textbooks – I find myself learning from the people all around me.

::: How would you describe your experience as a part of Student Activities at NVCC?
I have had many memorable experiences at NVCC, but one that stands out would be my working with other students as a Student Ambassador. Being an ambassador has helped me a lot. I’m usually a quiet and shy person. Working as a Student Ambassador has helped me to communicate with others, share my ideas and learn from other people at NVCC. All in all, it’s a whole lot of fun. Taking part in clubs and organizations at the college gives you an accurate picture of life in the “outside world.”

::: How has NVCC helped you to achieve your career and life goals?
NVCC has improved my confidence and had helped me to choose the right career path. When I started at the college, I had a limited view of what I could and could not do. With the help of the dedicated faculty and staff, I now know that my opportunities are limitless. I thank them for helping to bring this into focus.
