Recounting his story, Michael shared that after his first degree, he decided to further his education and this time round, put in his best.

He applied over and over to a number of schools but got no positive feedback but remained hopeful.

"5 months after graduation, I had applied for over 150 graduate schemes and entry level roles, and had no luck. It got to the point where I was distressed and needed hope. So, I sat myself down, prayed and had an honest conversation with God. I understood that I had to return back to University to show myself that I was capable of academic excellence"

After months of applying to schools, Michael finally got his 'yes' and stuck to the promise he made to himself to put 100% into his studies.
