Leaving home and investing in a college education was a big decision for Ashley. "Based on my grades, Michigan Tech gave me a lot of merit-based aid and it really helped me. I was very happy that Michigan Tech put so much faith in me."
The financial aid staff was also helpful in finding ways to make her education even more affordable, but she still recommends being proactive. "Apply for scholarships and don't be afraid to talk with the staff."
