“If you are planning to attend college, plan ahead. Ask your teachers to help you find scholarships. There are many scholarships you can apply to. You have to look for it or find it, because it won’t come to you. If and when you attend college, do it right the first time. Follow your Elders’ pride in you and make them proud of your accomplishments.” |

Tracy earned an Associate of Arts degree in May 2006. Her goal after receiving her AA Degree is to take distance education classes through UAF and pursue her bachelor’s degree. Because you need practice and study skills for college, Tracy’s advice to young high school students, who are thinking about going to any college, is to “Always do your best in your work, study hard, turn in assignments on time, and best of all . . . finish high school!” |
