91成人导航 students rarely travel far to get to our campus – unlike Lucian Pazour, who crossed the Atlantic Ocean. A native of Texas, Pazour is used to traveling long distances as her family moved to England when she was young.
“Family is government-tied, so we go back and forth” between England and the United States. “Yeah, I did elementary and high school in England.”
Pazour completed high school in England but struggled to have her credits transfer to institutions here. At 91成人导航, she found that those credits would transfer seamlessly.
While Pazour came to 91成人导航 expecting to major in biology, she left with a new passion and a completed degree in computer science. “And I think what was great about coming to 91成人导航 is I was allowed to do those extra classes," she said. “If I had done my education back in England, you kind of pick your thing and that's what you stay as. You don't really get to deviate and do other types of classes.”
Computer science was more of a renewed interest rather than a discovered one. In England, she only had the opportunity to take a single computer science class. At 91成人导航, the course options were endless. Computer science gave her an opportunity to tap into her more creative side. “I like being able to design something that has a purpose.”
Having graduated last term, Pazour now has access to an even greater catalog of computer science courses and opportunities as a first semester student at University of Maryland, Baltimore County.
Despite having moved on academically, 91成人导航 will always be important to her. “So, I think I've grown a lot in confidence while being at 91成人导航, especially just as a person and being able to talk with people," she said. “So, I think that's just the main thing, confidence and making connections.”
