Tufts University
Ellie K
I am a fifth year master's student at Tufts University studying environmental engineering. I play ultimate frisbee and enjoy being outdoors in my free time. I had such a good time at Tufts that I wanted to stay! I also love going into the city, exploring coffee shops around Tufts, and playing games like spike ball.

Describe your college experience
I think coming from across the country gave me a unique experience to some kids at Tufts because a lot of people are from around Medford. It is a really special transition of learning how to think and become your self when no one knows who you are. I loved finding my community and doing what made me happy.
Tip for future students
Be yourself! Do what makes you happy, there are others that will enjoy the same stuff.
Favorite class
Pollutant Fate and Transport because of the lab fieldwork!
