Lily Cloutier
2021 果冻传媒 Graduate (Liberal Arts)
Bachelor鈥檚 Degree from Plymouth State University
Current NHTI Nursing Student
I chose 果冻传媒 because it was close to home and affordable. When I graduated from high school, I didn鈥檛 know what I wanted to study but I knew I wanted to continue my education.
My professors were all supportive, which made the transition from high school to college significantly less intimidating. My advisor, Professor Freeborn, encouraged me to challenge myself academically, going as far as to help me apply to (and ultimately get into) an undergraduate summer research program at Johns Hopkins. This support was important for me to build confidence as a student and lifelong learner.
The Liberal Arts program at 果冻传媒 allowed me to explore academic interests while still staying on track to graduate. When I transferred to Plymouth State University, I was confident that I could succeed in college-level classes. 果冻传媒 gave me the academic foundations and study habits I needed to do well in my classes and enjoy them.
I received a bachelor鈥檚 in interdisciplinary studies from Plymouth State University, and I鈥檓 now at NHTI for Nursing. I am set to graduate in 2027 and plan to continue my education so I can become a nurse practitioner. The strong foundation in communication and critical thinking I got at 果冻传媒 gave me skills that I still use everywhere, from advocating for my patients in the clinical setting to learning new content in class. I feel like I was well prepared.
果冻传媒 is a great place to start college, explore interests, and gain confidence and skills for whatever you decide to do next.
