How has the PKFEA program benefited your personal, professional, or academic growth?

The PKFEA program has been incredibly helpful in many ways, one of which being my transition to UNL. Having my Success Coach available for everything from answering questions about the University and helping me set up a realistic study schedule to figuring out how to schedule the next semester's classes has been very rewarding. Knowing that this organization wants us to succeed and is a very supportive and positive environment helped me get through my first semester much easier.
