Student Testimonials
“The Promise Program helped me to understand how the little things all contribute to the college experience. By gaining this knowledge early, my adjustment was easier, and I have a better foundation.”
--Freshman Promise Student
“The Promise Program is the student support program that I needed coming into college. I have learned the tools to not only being a successful student, but to also being a successful person.”
–Sophomore Promise Student
“The coordinators have given me ways to succeed in my classes and at Mississippi State. Because of them, I have become better with my time management and my study habits, and they are always available to help me with any questions I may have. Being a first-generation college student has been a challenge, so I can say that I am glad I chose Mississippi State as my university.”
--Junior Promise Student
“The Promise Student Support Program presented me with opportunities and introduced me to various campus facilities that I can use to improve my academic abilities. The courses that I have enrolled in, College Success I and II, greatly supplement my stride toward academic success. The Promise Program also reminds me that I would never be alone in struggles and that there is always a helping hand to guide me if I ever feel overwhelmed.”
