Megan began her schooling at Prairie View A&M University in 2013, but left after having a difficult time landing on a career path. After transferring to Texas Southern University and deciding to get a degree in healthcare administration. She was guided down that path after watching her grandmother care for her great-grandmother.
After she graduates, she is also planning on opening an assisted living facility and looping in some of her classmates to help run it.
“The money that I make from rap, I really wanna go ahead an open [assisted living facilities],” she said during a 2020 interview with The Breakfast Club. “[I] really wanna have my classmates run it because I know when you get out of college, it’s hard to get a job! I know people that graduated with a degree in science, or some s—, and they work at Forever21…So I think it’ll be really cool if I let my classmates run my facility.”
Through out the course of Megan’s career, she’s been focused on her goal of completing school, even as her acclaim was growing. Transitioning to a fully-online learning model pre-pandemic, she also shared she sometimes took classes two at a time to maintain her busy schedule.
Most recently, she released a new project, titled “Something for the Hotties,” on October 29. It was her first release since her debut album, 2020’s “Good News,” and included freestyles, new tracks and previously released songs that were unavailable on streaming services. She is also gearing up to release a proper follow up to the album, tentatively titled “Tina Snow 2.”
