How Aislyn Tyler Found Confidence and Community

From MCC to UNO, Aislyn Tyler turned uncertainty into confidence, community, and a clear vision for her future in social work.

During the transfer process, she always felt like someone was there to answer her questions and help her navigate the next step.

“They do a great job of making sure you’re meeting all the requirements. So, they’re very straightforward with what classes you need to take and when. And I experienced that both at Metro and UNO. It was seamless,” she said.
