“I have spent hours on email or on the phone with advisors from NICC and SDSU to make sure the classes Abby takes are transferable and a good match to her goals,” said Amy Boehm, mother of North Fayette Valley senior, and future South Dakota State University (SDSU) student, Abby Boehm.
“The biggest message is that parents need to get involved if they or the kids want to take college courses,” Boehm added. “Find out what they are looking to study in college if possible and compare those requirements to those available through NICC.”
