Congratulations to’08 graduate Jenny (Tripp) Biernesser

Jenny graduated last December (in 3-1/2 years) from Southeastern University in Lakeland, FL.  While at Southeastern, she maintained a 3.85 GPA.  She took the LSAT law school entrance exam and scored in the 95% percentile with a score of 167.  She applied to and was offered acceptance in William & Mary School of Law, Regent University Law School (with 100% scholarship), Liberty Law School (with 85% scholarship), Washington & Lee Law School, George Washington University Law School, George Mason U School of Law and Maryland U School of Law.  She was priority wait-listed at Georgetown and Duke schools of law.  Jenny has decided to attend Indiana University's Maurer School of Law in Bloomington, IN, where she has been offered a 100% tuition paid scholarship.  She will start in mid-July with an early-start program they offer. 
Jenny’s parents, Julie and Howard, had this to say:  “We are very excited for her, and thankful for the strong foundation she received at Heritage that has served her so well in her post-high school education.  She had many teachers who sowed truth into her life and I know God has great plans for her.”
