When Illinois father of two Mike Loven decided to go back to college for a degree, he enrolled at the same university his daughter had. But he kept his studies secret from his entire family for four years before surprising them on graduation day.

Mike, 47, achieved his bachelor’s degree in finance and economics at Grand Canyon University in Phoenix, leaving with an impressive 3.99 GPA. His daughter, 23-year-old Taleigh Loven unknowingly studied alongside him for her bachelor’s in psychology.
