I knew I had to go somewhere that understood the aviation industry and supported students who work while still pursuing a degree. That’s why I decided to transfer to Vaughn. The admissions team guided me through every step of the transfer process. And my professors allow me to make up work and attend office hours if I ever have to miss class because of work. They are very understanding.”
