Bridge Student – Alejandra Villagra
Finding Sessions has been really great, I took a chance and decided to do the Undergraduate Certificate Program in Graphic Design. When I first started the program I was scared that I wouldn’t be able to juggle my work and school. Not only have I been able to do juggle work and school, I have also added in an internship that also takes up some of my time. It has been very beneficial and I’m actually proud of a lot of the work that I have done with these online courses.

When I first started online college, I was wanting to do something that pushed the limits of my creativity. My daughter was around 9-10 months old when I started working on my Undergraduate Certificate in Illustration. It was difficult at first trying to work on homework from my classes and taking care of my daughter, but I was determined to find different ways to make this work. Signing up for online college was the best decision I have ever made when moving forward with my life and to be a good example for my child when telling her that anything is possible if you put your mind to it.
Bridge Student – Maddie Vansoest
I found myself working in a position that encouraged me to assist with some of the graphic design elements for marketing campaigns. I rediscovered my love of the visual arts. I knew that being part of the marketing campaigns, especially in supporting startup companies, was something I found to be exciting and worth pursuing. Looking back, all my creative career steps have led me to my knowing I have found my heart’s work in graphic design. I have been successful in my opportunities to help the graphic team with my employer and I have excelled in the classes I have taken with Sessions. I have found my passion for the arts that had been taken from me years ago.
