"Jump START was a great way to get started at Missouri State. When I came in the first week, everyone was welcoming and assuring that the program would start me off on the right foot. The summer classes I took through Jump START were very helpful. The teachers were awesome; they prepared me for the Fall and gave me great advice about things I should know about the University. I still hang out with the friends I met over the summer and talk to the teachers I had. It was a great summer and getting ahead in my school work was awesome!" – Whitney, Jump START student
