TESTIMONIAL

Lorelei Graduate

I'm 18 years old, and I just graduated from both high school and college at the same time. Smarter by 1 Degree really opened doors for me and provided a clear path because I wasn’t sure what I wanted to do. They explained everything step by step, laid out my options, and allowed me to decide what was best for me. Whenever I had questions or doubts, they were incredibly encouraging in their responses, which boosted my confidence and made me feel capable.

Having my degree at such a young age has opened up so many more opportunities than most of my peers have, and I feel more confident moving forward. I highly recommend Smarter by 1 Degree.
