McNEESE STATE UNIVERSITY
A student who has completed four or more months of honorable, federal, continuous active duty may be granted up to two hours in personal fitness and conditioning and two hours in first aid. Additional credit may be given for completion of certain schools as recommended by the American Council on Education in the Guide to the Evaluation of Educational Experience in the Armed Services.
The DD Form 214 and other acceptable documents, such as military training transcripts, must be submitted to verify successful course completion. Credit is awarded only in areas currently offered within the University and will not duplicate credit already earned by the student. Any credit awarded is placed on a student’s transcript after one semester of attendance at McNeese.
If you would like to request an evaluation of your military training and experience, you must submit to the Assistant Registrar’s office a Member 4 Copy of your DD214 and request that an official Joint Services Transcript be sent directly to the Assistant Registrar at McNeese State University. An official JST can be requested at https://jst.doded.mil/official.html.
I am a McNeese graduate with a bachelor's degree in Family and Consumer Science and a concentration in Child and Family Studies. As a student, I competed on the rodeo team and served on the SGA board. I earned my master’s degree in 2022 from the University of South Dakota in Educational Administration and Leadership with a concentration in Adult and Higher Ed. I have over 13 years of experience in adult education and 20 years of educational experience.
My favorite part of being a Freshman Advisor is helping students navigate their new life routine as a college freshman by offering support with in-person office visits or by email to help students meet their goals. I always remind students of my favorite BB King quote – “Education is one thing no one can ever take away from you.” I believe that supporting students is vital to a student's success.
In my spare time, I raise registered American Brahman cattle, and I enjoy all the "country girl" things like hunting, fishing, growing a garden and cooking.
