Since 2006, UCF has increased opportunities for student success through the DirectConnect program, which guarantees admission to students who complete an associate degree in the Florida College System. More than 8,200 students transfer to UCF through this program each year. As of Fall 2024, the program has awarded 77,900 UCF degrees. DirectConnect students save more than $6,500 in tuition as they work toward their college degree./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/n

Nicole Stevens/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/n

Stevens is the oldest daughter of 10 children in her family. Homeschooled, she finished high school, got married and had three children. She always loved science./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/n

/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u201cOne day I was thinking about my future and asked, /news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u2018What do I know about myself?/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u2019/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u201d she says. /news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u201cAnd it came to me that the science I loved could be used in medicine to alleviate suffering./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u201d/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/n

She was 26 when she enrolled at Valencia College. Two years later, she transferred to UCF and pursued a major in biomedical sciences while maintaining a 4.0 grade point average. She volunteered at Nemours Children/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u2019s Health, where she was named Volunteer of the Month for being what she calls the /news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u201cSanta Claus of the ER,/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u201d helping children and parents seeking emergency care at the hospital./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/n

Stevens has won numerous UCF research and academic awards, such as the Order of Pegasus /news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u2014 the university/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u2019s most prestigious student honor./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/n

In August, she will join the UCF College of Medicine/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u2019s Class of 2029. She is considering becoming a pediatrician but is open to other specialties./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/n

/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u201cAs the oldest daughter, I took care of a lot of boo-boos and I always wanted to learn more about how to do it better,/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u201d she says. /news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u201cAs a mother I think I have a unique perspective to see parents and children where they are./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u201d/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/n

Zaima Aline/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/n

Aline/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u2019s passion for medical research was sparked by a heartbreaking personal experience. During her senior year of high school, a cousin was diagnosed with synovial sarcoma, a rare type of cancer that attacks soft tissue./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/n

/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u201cBefore then I didn/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u2019t really study that much, I mainly played video games,/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u201d she says. /news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u201cWitnessing his diagnosis and treatment made me realize what truly mattered to me and I completely changed the direction of my life./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u201d/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/n

Before transferring to UCF, Aline began her studies at Valencia. The COVID-19 pandemic hit while she was at Valencia, and she saw the physical and mental health impacts that social distancing and isolation caused. So she conducted a research project, including a campus-wide survey to document the effects of the disease./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/n

/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u201cCOVID-19 took away a lot of what I had hoped to experience at Valencia,/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u201d she says. /news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u201cSo, when I got to UCF, I made a promise to myself /news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u2014 I wasn/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u2019t going to waste a single moment./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u201dAline immersed herself in opportunities at UCF, diving into research at the Burnett School of Biomedical Sciences and quickly discovering a passion for scientific inquiry. Her honors undergraduate thesis explored the role of a protease (enzyme) called prostasin and its effects on angiogenesis /news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u2014 the process by which the body uses chemical signals to trigger the formation of new blood vessels./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/n

Beyond the lab, she co-founded It Takes A Village, a student-led organization dedicated to helping transfer and nontraditional students build a stronger sense of community on campus. Aline also volunteered with Hearts for the Homeless, an initiative that offers health services, such as blood pressure screenings, to individuals receiving care at Orlando/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u2019s Christian Service Center./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/n

Her academic and research accomplishments led to two Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowships at the Mayo Clinic in Phoenix. There, she studied the genetic mutations that drive brain cancer and contribute to its resistance against therapies. She says she was inspired by how Mayo physicians balanced cutting-edge research with a deep compassion for their patients./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/n

/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u201cWhat struck me most was that, at Mayo, the patient always came first, before anything else,/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u201d she says. /news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u201cIt made me realize that I don/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u2019t want to choose between science and people.

Arlette Morcelo/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/n

Morcelo became fascinated with science, especially genetics, at age 16 after learning she was conceived through IVF. After completing her associate degree at Valencia, she transferred to UCF, where she met Ken Teter, a professor at the Burnett School./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/n

/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u201cI didn/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u2019t even know what a Ph.D. was,/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u201d she says, /news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u201cBut I went into the lab and said, /news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u2018Oh, my God, I love  this./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u2019 /news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u201d/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/n

Morcelo says Teter encouraged her to /news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u201cgo for it,/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u201d when it came to scientific discovery and taught her that failure was just a learning experience./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/n

She served on the board of UCF/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u2019s Undergraduate Research Council, working with students and faculty to increase research opportunities for students earlier in their college careers. Among her academic and research honors, she became a Ronald E. McNair Scholar, which is a prestigious federal program that prepares students for graduate school. She became a peer mentor to help other students achieve success and served on the executive board of Transfer Knights, which organizes programs for transfer students./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/n

And through it all, she kept researching. In Teter/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/146629/u2019s lab, Morcelo focused on cholera, a potentially deadly disease caused by drinking contaminated water. The disease affects up to 4 million people a year worldwide.
