Our Passion Is Your Success
Student Success is the #1 Motlow mission. Preparing talent for the Workforce drives
everything we do.
Motlow, its faculty and staff, and its student-focused philosophy positioned me to
be successful in my pursuit to become a college graduate and laid the foundation for
beginning my career. Ultimately, it is the best decision I could have ever made when
faced with choosing to pursue post-secondary education or immediately enter the workforce.
Motlow provided me a competitive advantage through the Dual Enrollment program, jumpstarting
an educational journey that continues today.
When I say “Motlow changed my life,” it is an understatement. It changed the way I
feel about myself, how I interact with other people, and the way I thought my life
would turn out. It not only changed my life; it changed my family’s life too.
