My goal is to graduate in May of 2020 with a Bachelor&#8217;s degree in Global Studies. The opportunities I have been offered at MTSU have been astounding. I had the pleasure of receiving the Honors College Transfer Fellowship, something I would not have gotten if I had not transferred from Vol State. As a non-traditional student, I felt that I may not fit in in the university setting but I was very wrong! MTSU has welcomed me with open arms and helping hands all along the way. My favorite opportunity I have been given at MTSU was the opportunity to study abroad in Israel in the summer of 2019. Without the strong foundations I created at Vol State and the ability to build those foundations even higher at MTSU, I would not have been able to travel as much as I have. I am very appreciative of the connections I have made while at MTSU and I look forward to seeing what doors will be opened with my degree from MTSU!&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:20%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-cover is-light\"><span aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-cover__background has-lightgray-background-color has-background-dim-100 has-background-dim\"><\/span><div class=\"wp-block-cover__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-cover-is-layout-constrained\"><div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"463\" height=\"564\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mtsu.edu\/partners\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/165\/2025\/02\/Lightning_Cartoon_1.jpg\" alt=\"Lightning\" class=\"wp-image-126\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mtsu.edu\/partners\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/165\/2025\/02\/Lightning_Cartoon_1.jpg 463w, https:\/\/www.mtsu.edu\/partners\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/165\/2025\/02\/Lightning_Cartoon_1-246x300.jpg 246w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 463px) 100vw, 463px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Questions?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">We at MTSU want to help you become a Blue Raider!
