Alumni Profiles
The paths after Mid-Pen are as varied as our alums themselves.
Life after Mid-Pen can be both exciting and challenging, and is rarely a "one-size-fits-all" proposition for Mid-Pen grads. While most alums go straight to four-year colleges, many pursue alternative paths, whether taking a gap year, attending community college, doing internships, or even going straight to work.
