Meet the Applicants- Katelyn

Tuesday, September 22, 2009

Katelyn is a senior at San Marcos High School. Her goal is to attend Baylor University and participate in their Bachelor of Arts in Medical Humanities program. After getting her Bachelor's, Katelyn will take her MCATs and go to medical school. She plans to specialize in psychology and neurology and work with children with mental handicaps.

She is saving so she can afford college and enable herself to go into the medical field. To reach her goals, she works all summer and school year and puts most of her money into a savings account for college. She is willing to work hard to increase her college savings.

Katelyn believes that meeting with a savings coach will help her make smarter financial decisions and most importantly, it "will change my life".
