"COSC Foundation provided the opportunity and the means, the College provided the guidance for me to realize a lifelong dream of earning a college degree. I will be forever grateful."
"I cannot say enough about the support and encouragement that I received from the staff at COSC. I recommend your program all the time!"
"At age 51, I was extremely proud to wear the cap and gown having earned my Associate degree. Although financial difficulties have not allowed me to complete my Bachelor's degree, I am committed to doing so. I could not have gotten this far without Charter Oak State College. Thank you Charter Oak, for helping to make one of life's dreams possible."
