After graduating from North Central, Haylie transferred to Grand Valley State University to complete her bachelor’s degree in communication. “I’m glad I came to North Central because it was the first step in a path that led me to where I am today. I made lifelong connections and got to enjoy all that is offered in Petoskey, with a lot less debt compared to my friends," she said.
