NJ-AAST-2026-0001: Future actor or nurse working while he finishes his associate degree at Ocean County College

STUDENT BACKGROUND:
An 18-year-old freshman in his first semester at Ocean County College is studying health science. He started taking college classes in his freshman year of high school and kept going through his junior year. His dream is to become an actor, and if that doesn't work out, he plans to become a nurse. His parents and his sister are his biggest inspiration; his mom and sister both work in health care, and he would follow in their footsteps. Working while going to school has made it hard to juggle both. Car problems moved him to online classes, which has made things a little easier.
