		Student Success Story
		Maile Soukup grew up on the big island of Hawaii and graduated from Kohala High School. Even though she was more than 2,000 miles from North San Diego County, she had heard of MiraCosta College and its excellent academic programs. “People in high school in Hawaii are aware of MiraCosta. It has a good reputation,” explains Maile. “When I was 18, I came to California to take a job working in the sales and marketing department of a company in Oceanside. At the time, I wasn’t going to attend college. However, I soon realized I needed more computer experience.” Maile enrolled in CSIT 110, Computer Applications. "This was a great course that really helped with my career and with school. After I finished CSIT 110, I enrolled in CSIT 115, Intermediate Computer Applications. Everything I learned in these classes I use every day at my job. I also feel like I have an advantage in my other classes. Whether at work or in school, if I get an assignment, I know I can get it done quickly, confidently, and professionally." Click here to read more student success stories.
