College Search Advice:
Sometimes you just know if a college is or isn’t for you. Don’t let other people’s opinions change the way you feel about a school.
A Favorite Allegheny Memory:
My experience happened before I even got to Allegheny as a student. I had wanted to take a particular Freshman Seminar, but the class filled before I could register. I emailed the professor asking if there was anyway I could get into his class. Unfortunately I could not but the professor invited me to visit him when I got to campus and talk to him about my interests and what classes I could take with him later on in my college career. This really showed me how much the professors actually care about their students and it sets the tone for the campus as a whole.
Favorite Place On Campus:
The Third Floor of Pelletier Library
Why I Came to Allegheny:
I chose Allegheny because of a few reasons. First, as soon as I stepped on campus it just felt like home and I knew Allegheny was for me. Also, I wanted to swim and I could do that here as well. Most importantly, Allegheny’s reputation of being great academically was a big factor in my decision.
