<Richard Sheppard> I enlisted into the Marine Corps

when I was seventeen years old.

I was in the Marine Corps for five years.

So I decided to look into Grantham University,

and called their admissions department.

They had a dedicated veterans' representative that helped me go through

the Montgomery GI Bill application process.

When I first got a hold of Grantham, they helped me out

through the whole process.

Letting me know how to go about using tuition assistance.

The textbook grant definitely helped out.

I paid nothing out of pocket for books.

<Richard Sheppard> Grantham was able to look at my military experience

and what I had.

And pull that experience out and apply those credits very quickly.

<Lindsey Streeter> They understand the needs of the service member,

completely.

<Annette Simon> I chose Grantham seeing that it was military

friendly, because there were a lot of other veterans that chose Grantham.

<Amanda Spotswood> While I was in the military, I got three degrees.

I got my associate's, bachelor's and master's.

<Charles Booth> I had so much military background and training,

that was applicable to a lot of degrees.

<Annette Simon> They were also willing to accept credits

for military experience.

<Charles Booth> So I probably had maybe fifteen or sixteen

credits transfer over.

<Lindsey Streeter> I graduated in 2012, it's one of the most

rewarding things I think I've ever done.

Aszhianna interviews her mother about the University of Wisconsin Odyssey Project - Duration: 1:23.

[Aszhianna] This is my mom Asha, and she's in the Odyssey program. Mom, how do you feel about the

Odyssey program and how has it helped

you so far? [Mom] The Odyssey program has given

me strength, belief. I have belief in myself that I can conquer anything. Um, they

have opened up so many doors that I did not know were out there for young people

going back to school to further their education. Odyssey is a wonderful place

to be. [Aszhianna] When you first started the Odyssey

program, how did you feel? [Mom] Nervous. I

didn't have an education beyond high school, so going back to college, taking

college courses - it was like, "Am I ready for this? Am I ready for this?" But I can

definitely tell you our instructor, Emily, and all of our teachers will push you

for greatness. [Aszhianna] How do you feel about

Odyssey Junior? [Mom] Odyssey Junior is

wonderful. I mean, a lot of the times I would not know - I wouldn't be able to

come to school. I wouldn't be able to attend regular classes without having

childcare for my children. Thank goodness Odyssey does offer that! So, I

come to class; my children go to class. We have a ball. They look forward to

Wednesdays every week: "Mom, is it Wednesday yet? Is it Wednesday yet? So,

definitely, Odyssey Junior is a great thing.

<Sherwonder Black> I had some amazing advisors.

They helped me navigate through my career path and degree path.

<Bill Rawlins> After enrollment, my student advisors

were pretty . . . pretty awesome.

<Sherwonder Black> They were very knowledgeable about

how to help me as a student.

<Michael Shrader> Any time I reached out to my student advisor,

they were very quick to respond to help out with any issues at all.

<Angela Taylor> She was so helpful . . .

She took care of me . . . She walked me through everything.

<Sherwonder Black> She was like my cheerleader.

She called, she checked on me, she sent emails.

<Diana Tucker> No matter how much I wanted to stop,

They were positive, and they said, "Diana, you can do it."

<Amanda Spotswood> They know what I'm needing

or they know what I'm calling about, before I even call.

Aspire to Inspire | Ashford University - Duration: 0:46.

So my driving force to go back to school was really being able to open doors for me in

the future.

I knew that I never wanted to get to the point where I stopped learning and one of my favorite

parts about Ashford is that I was able to use the information I learned right away.

It was so exciting for me because I wanted to be an inspirational leader, I wanted to

learn a little about different management styles, and going through some of these classes

where they're talking about that and they're getting you excited about how to be that kind

of a manager; it really puts me at an advantage with other applicants when I'm going in

to apply for a job because now I do have this degree and all this wonderful knowledge that

I'm able to apply to a role in my future.

Meet the Neighbours | Rob & Sandra | University of Lincoln - Duration: 2:08.

Hey everyone! Welcome to 'Meet The Neighbours' - A show all about the community all in the West End area.

Today I'm going to be talking with Rob and Sandra, who have lived in the West End for over 30 years.

I'm Sandra Lewis, this is my husband Rob, and we've lived in the West End for 42 years since we got married.

We're both members of the West End Residents Association.

It is one of the big things about the West End area is that there is a real community there.

The thing is, when you talk to students, they want to live in a community,

they don't want to live in a student area, they want to live within the community and I think now we've got

the balance that we've got a good community and then we've got the students coming in.

And we want them to become part of our community while they're here.

We absolutely welcome you, but please just

have a little consideration at those times when you've you've been out are you're having a party,

have a little consideration for the rest of the people living around.

And if you're coming home through West Parade or just any of the streets in the early hours -

again, just try and try and keep the noise down so it's not actually

interrupting people who go to bed at half-past-ten and get up at half-past-six in the morning.

Communicate with us and get to know us.

I think they'd find their lives enriched as well, as well as ours.

We've had one sleep on our settee one night when he couldn't get in.

We had one round for Christmas dinner this year,

One of the girls next door was going to be on her own in the house, she wasn't going home.

The other girls obviously had left so she was on her own and we invited her round

to have Christmas lunch with us and our family was there as well and we had a great time.

Kingston University and Lebara Foundation volunteer mission to India - Duration: 2:30.

I think the trip is going amazing, we've had such an eye opening experience.

It's only been one week I feel like I've learned so much.

It's funny because Ive noticed the kids each have their own personalities, some of them

like to cheat a little bit or they're a bit perfectionist, they like to do everything right

Do you like curry?

Yes I do!

Yes I do!

Do you like milkshakes?

Here, the Kingston volunteers, around 18 days they are going to spend here.

They are teaching the children [and] enriching their communication skills.

Mostly this [visit] will really help the children for their career development and communication skills

On behalf of Lebara Foundation, we give thanks to Kingston volunteers and the Kingston team

for giving this opportunity to the enrichment of the slum children.

Thank you.

Starting university - Duration: 0:19.

I think one of the main things was like it's so independent... there's a lot of support

but there's no one you know you need to know that you've got to sell in and you need

to get things started as soon as possible or you're

just gonna feel like you're falling behind
