Future Success, Career Born at Nash Community College
Hope Brindle Myers began her college education while she was a high school student. Dual enrollment, also known as the Career and College Promise program, allowed her to enroll without the cost of tuition.

By high school graduation, the Nash County native had completed her first year of college classes and enrolled full time in the Associate in Arts College Transfer program at Nash Community College. "I knew I would eventually end up at a university, however, I was much happier going to a local school and making connections close to home. As a dual enrolled student, I had such a positive experience that I didn't even question pursuing the first two years of my undergraduate degree at Nash," she said.

Myers enrolled at Nash Community College because of its great reputation and strong transfer program. Like many college students, in the beginning she did not know what career she wanted to pursue. "My instructors helped me realize the areas of my education in which I was most talented and interested, and took the time to encourage me to pursue those goals," she said. While serving as a Student Ambassador, she realized her deep passion for the Communication and Public Relations field. "This, along with reassurance from some very influential instructors, helped me mold my career path. I love what I do, and I believe I owe a lot of that to Nash."
