Developing Your Personal Potential
Tatiana Alaniz knows the meaning of perseverance. Despite the roadblocks and unexpected turns along the way, she proudly walked across this stage this May to receive her Bachelor of Applied Science degree from Loyola University 新奥尔良.
“I'm actually a re-admit student. I started at Loyola in 2007, and it's been quite a journey,塔蒂亚娜解释道. “I had some personal family issues and I had to stop coming. I also had my first child during that course, but it never stopped me from coming back to my studies.”
Juggling Life and School
作为妻子, 四个孩子的母亲, 和企业主, Tatiana knew she needed a flexible schedule to fit in her coursework around her busy life. 罗耀拉在线 offered her just the flexibility she needed, with the same personalized support she knew from her time as an on-ground learner.
“I just knew that I needed something that was going to be flexible with my schedule,塔蒂亚娜说. “Not only flexible with my schedule, but something that I'm familiar with, which was the campus culture, the way the professors care—and that's really everything that I have received since coming back to Loyola.”
In addition to the support she received in the classroom, Tatiana also met with her 学业成功教练 每周都要坚持下去. Even if she was struggling with something personal, or feeling stressed about her courses, she always had that extra layer of support to keep her focused.
“I would recommend 罗耀拉在线 to others because it is a complete support system that you will receive. Although it's fast paced, I still feel like it's manageable. It's something that you can certainly balance your schedule out to be able to make it work,塔蒂亚娜说.
Finish What You Started—and Keep Going
Now that Tatiana has her undergraduate degree, she is excited to continue her studies and pursue her law degree next. While it’s clear that earning her degree has helped her professionally, she is also really grateful for the personal development that going back to school has provided in her life.
“I think it's truly important for people to weigh out their options on whether they want to finish school or not, but understand that it is a major goal that you can accomplish to set an example for your family or children,塔蒂亚娜解释道. “It challenges you in the best way possible to think critically, 发展思想, and I feel like these are all resources that you can use in your adult life.”
