Shay S. Sandoval-Flores
Hello/Hola/Aanii! Shay Sandoval-Flores was a first-generation, low-income, Pell-eligible, undergraduate student. Like many MSU students, she entered college underprepared to succeed. Shay valued education but could not help herself navigate college or financially support her education. She struggled with academics, campus climate, self-confidence, and a sense of belonging. Shay considered giving up on college but eventually found her path. Her college experience became the catalyst for a career in Higher Education. She has been part of Michigan State University for 4.5 years. Shay understands each student brings unique circumstances, situations, backgrounds, and personalities. She realizes students’ past and present influence their college experience. Shay believes in meeting students where they are, supporting their dreams, and helping them to own and navigate their path to a degree. She comes to you with the understanding of how important advising support is to students on their educational journey, and is here to help you stay on your path to success.
