Eriyon A.
I am very blessed to accept this award from the High Program. Without the High Program I will not be able to live on campus. I take the bus to Wayne State every day. It is hard getting up in the morning and walking a quarter mile just to get to the bus stop. I have come from a single parent household, and we are struggling to afford college. It is my dream to get a Bachelor’s in Computer Science. By me living on campus, I will not have to worry about missing my bus, I will not have to suffer in the cold, and I will do better academically. I will be available for tutoring and other resources. Living on campus will secure food, Internet, and other basic needs I have a hard time having at home.
