“Financial aid has opened the door for both me and my family. My family can continue to pursue their own endeavors and business, and I can focus solely on my career and education.”
“Financial aid has allowed me to pursue my dream of being a justice-oriented educator. Without financial aid, I could never have pursued higher education at any institution, let alone Smith.”
“You give us a chance to pursue our goals in a place full of resources—resources I could never have dreamed of in my country. There are so many opportunities for which I am grateful.”
