Nicole Darden

Why MHC:
After I saw the college and  met with the professors in the psychology department I knew that this was the place for me.  The first time I applied I did not get accepted.  Kay and Carolyn were supportive and helpful in explaining what I could do to gain admission.  I really felt that the FP Program went above and beyond to help me regain my confidence and encouraged me to reapply.  I also thought that the psychology program here could give me the background I need to go to a PHD program .

Expected Graduation Date:  May 25, 2008

Postgraduate Plans:
I will be taking a year off to focus on my family and my job as the veteran's assistant at Holyoke Community College
