Part Four: Student transformations
Psychology to Social Work because it will suit my intended employment
outcomes better. Even though my life has had the most tumultuous change
recently with the break-up of my marriage, resulting in my having had a
total nervous breakdown, I am still so excited that I have this chance to be
re-educated and change the course of my life.
STEPS was not at all easy for me. I struggled with everything — the maths,
English, everything — but what a great thing to overcome and do. I could
not recommend it highly enough to anyone who is thinking of changing
their life choices by gaining further education. The program equips you so
thoroughly in more ways than just academically; it grounds you into the
study mode that gaining a degree requires. Additionally, it eases you into
the academic world of a university, taking the mystery out of uni life and
familiarising you with the campus, which in itself was worth attending the
program for. I am one very happy STEPS graduate, who is in the process of
realising her dreams.
