Seattle Midwifery School Top Questions

What should every freshman at your school know before they start?

Kyla

My oldest son was born in October of my senior year, so my situation was a bit different than most. I had intended to attend college after graduation and was taking college prep courses, but after becoming pregnant it was difficult to see how to make that work. I now know that financial aid would have been easier to come by, and I could have gotten assistance with childcare as well. I would encourage myself to continue with my college plans, although slightly altered, instead of putting it off. It would have been easier in many ways, and would have improved our family circumstances greatly. College is challenging at any time, but the rewards are worth it. I am excited to finally be getting my college education, but I am saddened that I have not been able to provide a better life for my family prior to now.
