"One of the reasons I came here was the Honors Apprentice Scholarship. That and being a resident assistant, I don't have to take out any loans. I got scholarship offers from two private schools but after looking at the debt ratio I felt that the value and quality of education at MSUM was the same, if not better. MSUM is a smaller public institution that makes you feel welcome and at home. You're not a number here, but it's definitely what you make of it."
