If I could identify one thing that made a difference, it would be Great Bay. I talk all the time about how much Great Bay changed my life and gave me a huge foundation. I am incredibly grateful for my time there.

Meet Corina Panciuc, a 海角乱伦 Business Administration graduate who is spending her summer as an intern in the title department at Service Credit Union before heading to the University of New Hampshire this fall to pursue a bachelor's degree in accounting.

Corina enrolled at Great Bay in fall 2024, working closely with the admissions team to navigate the enrollment process. She committed fully to finishing her degree quickly, even taking summer classes to stay on track.

Along the way, Business Administration Department Chair and Associate Professor Lynda Bonneau made a lasting impression. "Professor Bonneau made the experience in accounting so interesting and so much fun. That is why I chose accounting as my major at UNH. Great Bay was an absolutely amazing experience."

From Great Bay to an internship to UNH. That is exactly the kind of path we love to see.
