What inspired me to do UMA is that I felt like I had been taking care of everyone else … it was just time for me to do something for myself.
UMA has given me the care of emotional support, education support...when it comes to learning services, especially the library, they’re almost like a family.
I have never seen a school that has had someone with you from the very first time that you send information, wanting information, all the way until graduation, then past graduation.
