What is Megan Thee Stallion studying?
For those wondering what Stallion's college education entails, she is currently studying for a bachelor's degree in health administration, all the while keeping up her super-successful rap career.
She decided to pursue a degree after watching her grandmother take care of her great-grandmother. In a 2019 interview with Vulture, Stallion noted that she'd like to "create a facility for people who are older to go and have somebody help them with their end-of-life care."
In June 2020, the rapper shared with People about her decision to keep studying amid experiencing huge chart success. "I want to get my degree because I really want my mom to be proud... She saw me going to school before she passed." Stallion's mother, Holly Thomas, died in March 2019 from brain cancer.
