'This Is The Next Step': Teen Mom OG's Amber Is Pursuing A College Degree

Amber is setting out to achieve her "educational objectives Throughout tonight's Teen Mom OG episode, the mother of two started the method of pursuing a college degree at Purdue University (she acquired her GED throughout prison). The initial step: Amber talked to an admissions representative about her wish to study neurological psychology because of her "different types of mental illnesses."


"The last ten years, I have been going to therapists and psychiatrists, and I've habitually been very curious," Amber explained. "I just feel like this is the next step to put it with each other with an education. I think it could be a very powerful thing to help people out, honestly."


Shortly right following the call, Amber set her plan into action and submitted her application online. Then, she procured some big news through the email.


"Congratulations! You have been enrolled in Purdue University," Amber read to her producer Lorraine. And once reality set in, Amber admitted she was "super happy" about this next chapter. Next up: psychology and English language courses!


Amber once imagined back in the day she "couldn't do it" -- yet right now she has the faith she can "get there and do it." How will she alter to this next chapter of her life? Be sure to keep watching Amber every Tuesday on Teen Mom OG at 8/7c.
