. . . distance education helped him pursue his hockey dream

Matthew Paloscio has been playing hockey since he was a small child, and always has had to balance hockey with school. Matthew wanted to pursue a hockey career as well as prepare to attend college. That’s when he discovered Allied National High School and enrolled in their college preparatory diploma program. Matthew played junior hockey when he attended Allied National High School, which included playing in Texas part-time and living with his parents the rest of the year in New York. Attending Allied National High School gave him the flexible schedule he needed to prepare for college and continue to play hockey. Matthew graduated with a 3.0 GPA and is now studying at Hult International Business School in London, England. His major is International Business and Finance. While attending Allied, Matthew took courses, such as Economics, which helped him to prepare for his potential future career in finance. Matthew plans to pursue a career in sports business in Europe. “I really enjoyed ANHS because the teachers and staff were really friendly and helpful. I thought that the economics course was particularly enjoyable and helped give me a foundation for what I am now studying.” 2012 Outstanding Graduate Program - DETC, 1601 18th St., NW, Suite 2, Washington, D.C. 20009
