About a year later, I found the University of the People on Facebook.
I noticed that it was "tuition-free," but I remained skeptical, so I felt the need to double-check the total cost. To my surprise, it was indeed tuition-free. I then looked into the English language requirement and discovered that, instead of testing my English proficiency, they offered to teach me before admission. I decided to give it a try; even if I didn't get accepted, I thought I could at least improve my English. My expectations for enrolling weren't very high. However, I successfully passed the English language exam and began taking college courses.
Right away, I began applying the knowledge I gained from the program to my life, business, and to assist others:
I acquired skills in business writing and marketing, which allowed me to start creating content for social media and my website.
I gained proficiency in accounting and finance, equipping me with the ability to effectively manage personal and business finances.
I acquired knowledge in business law, enabling me to navigate company registration and simple legal protection.
I was able to balance studying, growing my business, and raising my kids simultaneously.
