Miss Saint Augustine’s University Loses Her Student Debt On The Nick Cannon Show
Saint Augustine’s University senior McKenzie Estep was one of 7 students from historically black colleges/universities to be invited as a guest on the second episode of the newly-launched Nick Cannon Show — a nationally syndicated talk show, which premiered on Monday, September 27th.
“Going away to college was so important to me coming from a low-income single parent household,” said Estep, who is also a first-generation High School graduate and college student. “I applied to this one institution (SAU) and they accepted me by one point. Because tuition is still so high, I work three jobs and I’m going to accumulate $34,000 in student loan debt.”
Estep’s story drew the attention of Nick Cannon. “I was so moved by all of ya’ll stories and the obstacles that you’ve overcome that I gotta help out,” Cannon said.
