Leah Remini is living the life she always wanted, and wants her followers to know that it’s “never too late” to pursue a dream.
The “King of Queens” star shared on Thursday that she has earned an associate’s degree from New York University, and is currently working on achieving her bachelor’s degree.
“Three years ago, I embarked on a terrifying journey: becoming a college student at the age of 50,” Remini wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter.
The actor said that before this pursuit, she had an eighth grade education, after having spent the majority of her life in the Church of Scientology.
Remini – who had been a Scientology member since her childhood – also shared that she decided to pursue higher education after departing the Church (which she left in 2013 and has been an outspoken critic of).
“I desperately wanted a higher education for many years but didn’t move forward because I feared I was not smart enough,” Remini wrote on Thursday.
Sharing an image of her diploma from NYU, Remini said that she earned her associate’s degree after “three years of hard work, long nights, tears, and wanting to give up so many times.”
