Doty, said that after state competition in 2017, she decided that marching and playing her instrument wasn't something she was ready to be done with

When she did hear back, she got an acceptance letter saying she had been accepted into the school of music at OSU
Doty received the McKnight Leadership Scholorship which covers all of her out-of-state tuition and a combined total amount of approximately $75,000
