In 2023, she decided to learn more about Truman, which was just minutes from her home. That decision changed her outlook on education and her life.
Nicole Prorok attributes her success at the University of Illinois at Chicago on the instructors she had at City Colleges of Chicago’s Wilbur Wright College. Nicole says she felt prepared at UIC because she received a solid educational foundation in her first two years of college.
Graduating with honors from Wright College in 2014, Nicole completed her Bachelor’s degree – again, with honors – from UIC in May of 2017, with a major in communications.
She has just begun work at DePaul University on a Master’s program in advertising and marketing while working as a representative for a small marketing firm.
