格鲁吉亚福克斯 is “kind of” in her first year at 新葡京app State University, but officially has more than two years under her belt.

Fox 新葡京appd high school with both a diploma and an associate’s 新葡京app from WSU thanks to 并发招生. She attended the 北犹他州数学、工程与科学学院, better known as NUAMES, which has classroom space on both the WSU Ogden and Davis campuses.

That’s where she developed a love for history and 政治科学.

“I’d been taking a history class from a teacher who’s also a 新葡京app State professor with a master’s in 政治科学,” Fox said. “After that class, I looked up what kind of careers you can have in 政治科学.”

在一份包括游说者和国会助手的名单上，福克斯把重点放在了法律上。 “There was definitely an aha moment. I realized law school is something I could do.”

Today, 19-year-old Fox is studying 政治科学 with a minor in legal studies, a common path to law school. 她说，同时入学给了她一个巨大的领先优势。

“I’m so glad I took advantage of that opportunity,” she said. “Switching from NUAMES to 新葡京app State was super easy, and there were so many perks to staying at 新葡京app.”

新葡京app State is home to over 16,000 并发招生 students — more than any other college in Utah. 根据综合高等教育数据系统，在全国范围内，华盛顿州立大学的CE学生在四年制大学中排名最高。

Fox said her professors are “super engaging.” Her favorite class this semester is Legal Environment of Business, taught by a professor who’s also an attorney.

As part of her 16-credit course load, Fox is also taking a ballet class, which she hopes will refine her skills in figure skating — a hobby she adopted last year. She’s currently gearing up for her first competition in February.

The Davis County native said she expects to 新葡京app again from WSU in 2026, this time with her bachelor’s 新葡京app. Then, because she loves cold weather, she’d like to go to law school in either Utah or Canada.

“I’m open to possibilities,” she said. “I’d like to be either a copyright attorney or a civil attorney who deals with things like divorce cases.”
