"A day in the life" of a STRIVE U student:
STRIVE U students have busy schedules! Most work several days a week,
take classes almost every day, and are living on their own for the very
first time. In a typical day, someone might clean their apartment, go
to work for a few hours, return home to make dinner, and then go out
for a night on the town! On days that students do not work, they usually
take classes at USM (www.usm.maine.edu).
