Create Your
Own Story

UNH wants to highlight students success stories. One way of doing this has been through the Create Your Own Story program which features students who have been identified because in their own way they have tried to make the most of their time at UNH. Each of their stories are different, yet they all share a common theme which is a deep desire to claim their education at UNH. Their stories are rich, interesting and unique.
