This means my next semester at O.U. will be a lighter load as I need only nine more credits to apply to Wayne State\u2019s Law school. I work two jobs which has definitely sharpened my time management skills. I am still in the process of finding a political and legal internship which I hope to pursue in the spare time from my lighter school load. The summer of 2020 will be spent hovering over books as I plan to take my Law Schools Admission Test in the early fall in order to have my score in advance to my Wayne State application due on June 1st 2021. I am very excited for all the future has to offer me. It is very exhilarating knowing my hard work will soon pay off.<\/p>\n<p>I am most of all grateful for the Kuchenmeister family and Sandbox Foundation for having endorsed my education. Without their kind help, I would not be able to have gotten so far ahead of my graduating class in such a short period. This opportunity presented by their family has allowed me to remain focused on my course work and less stressed on my tuition payments. It has made a tremendous difference in my college experience, I am forever grateful for their help.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Editor&#8217;s note: Natali first received a 2018 Kuchenmeister Family Scholarship.\u00a0 She then received a 2019 Sandbox Foundation Continuing Scholarship.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am currently a second year student at Oakland University\u2014but with the advanced placement credits I acquired at Romeo High School, and being a year round student, I am a year ahead in my studies.
