Balancing Family and Education: UMA Student Reaches Her Goal
Merelesita R.
UMA Graduate
I am an online student and a working mom of four. It was tough, but I’m thankful to UMA for the flexibility so I am able to complete my classes and not only that, I’ve passed with honors. It was very challenging, but I love the challenges here because they have pushed me to where I am today. I have a focus. I have a goal and I’ve forced myself to reach that goal. That’s why I’m here today.
I thank God and my family. I’ve got a very supportive husband and my kids are very supportive. They pushed me and told me, “You can still do it no matter what, you can still go for it.” I’m so thankful to God and my family.
