What Graduates are Saying:
New Door helped me move forward and finish school and become a graduate. It also gave me more opportunities to delve deeper into subjects like philosophy and critical thinking and learn more outside of just regular subjects. And, it was nice to be able to pursue something I needed while getting paid.
