Ms. Terry is always so approachable and helpful! I often reach out to her on behalf of very stressed students who want to know their FAFSA status, and she always responds kindly and in a timely manner so that we can give the students some peace of mind. She is a team player!

Tameika Shackelford
Tameika is professional and a pleasure to work beside. She shows a positive attitude when students or staff come in with a negative attitude. Her tone and demeanor never change from helping people who come into the Perry Health Sciences Campus SS office. She is an added value to Wake Tech Admissions.

Whoever had an idea to change the login to AdAstra to be a general Wake Tech ID, thank you! You are saving Wake Tech probably an hour back in my productivity just in wait time for the site to launch :-). But seriously - Great Job!
