From Collegiate High School to Registered Dental Hygienist at 20. 🦷

Originally from La Marque High School, Jasia Harris graduated from College of the Mainland's Collegiate High School (CHS) in spring 2024 with her associate degree. The following fall, she enrolled in COM's Dental Hygiene Program, where she graduated this spring as part of the program's first graduating cohort.

Through COM's CHS and Promise programs, Jasia was able to jump-start her college journey and graduate debt-free from both the CHS and Dental Hygiene programs.

Here's what Jasia had to say about her experience:
"Without COM, I don't know where I would have ended up. With the resources available, you have every opportunity to take the most successful and effective path possible, and my journey is proof of that. Thanks to COM, I became a registered dental hygienist at just 20 years old. I couldn't thank COM enough!"
