Megan Thee Graduate has finished college and her “WAP” collaborator Cardi B posted the sweetest message congratulating her on her big day. “Congrats @theestallion all of your hard work paid of!!! I know your Parents are super proud of you,” the “UP” rapper wrote.

Megan responded, “Thank you bardi” with three “heart eyes emojis.”

Megan Thee Stallion graduated from Texas Southern University on Saturday (Dec. 11) and obtained her Bachelor’s degree in Health Administration.

The Texas native’s motive to finish college was to make her grandmother and mother proud; they both passed away in 2019.

“I want my big mama to be proud. She saw me going to school before she passed,” said Megan to PEOPLE. “My grandmother that’s still alive used to be a teacher, so she’s on my butt about finishing school. I’m doing it for me, but I’m also doing it for the women in my family who made me who I am today.”

She also has big plans on what she wishes to accomplish with her degree.

“I really wanted to be an administrator over a hospital, but I knew I still wanted to be Megan Thee Stallion. I was like, ‘What can I do?'” she told PEOPLE in June 2020. “I was like, ‘You know what, I’m gonna open an assisted-living facility and use the money that I make from rapping to open it. Then I’m gonna let my classmates run it.”

Congrats Megan!
