Where are you from? Who introduced you to HBCUs?*
I am from the Illustrious State of Maryland where I have been a resident all of my life. Product of Prince Georges County Public School System.
My mother instilled in me, education is Key and it doesn't matter what college you choose, always stay true to God and yourself, and Success is inevitable.

Why did you choose an HBCU over a pwi?*
HBCU IS LIFE, the overall experience, the relationships, the education and life long memories that can only be made at an HBCU.
