Amber Altice intends to continue her education
Our Emory & Henry seniors are preparing to graduate and change the world.
Amber Altice of Rocky Mount, Va. received a bachelor’s degree in exercise science.
Altice graduated in December 2022 but will participate in Commencement with the class of 2023. “Being a student-athlete, Emory & Henry not only provided me with an education in the classroom, but also on the field and has prepared me greatly for my future. I have gained skills and knowledge that I will keep with me for a lifetime,” said Altice.
Altice was a member of the women’s soccer team, the Pre Health Club and the Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA). She intends to pursue a master’s degree in physician assistant studies. “I have encountered many professors, coaches and peers who have pushed me to achieve my future goals and have helped guide me through my college experience. Having received an education from Emory & Henry I feel fully prepared for what life will throw my way,” Altice said.
