“Bergen provided me with a strong academic foundation and a set of tools that have allowed me to succeed academically and professionally. Most importantly, my Bergen classmates and professors became a family that have supported my educational growth even after graduation. As a current medical student, I can confidently say that I owe my educational opportunities to my experiences at Bergen.”
– Maria De Abreu Pineda (’14)
