Describe your college experience
My college experience was a little different than most. I attended cyber school from fourth grade until graduation. Transitioning to college was a little more difficult for me as going to in person classes with other students was a big adjustment for me. I was at a small liberal arts college my freshman year before I transferred to Pitt. Transferring to Pitt was one of the best decisions of my life because at Pitt I was able to make some of my best friends and have the college experience that I wanted.
Tip for future students
Get involved with clubs and campus organizations. Try to make as many friends as you can welcome week. It can take a minute before you find your right niche on campus so don't worry if you don't right away.
Favorite class
Constitutional Law has been my favorite class so far. I liked it the most because law really interests me and confirmed more for me that law is the right path for me.
Career goals
I plan on becoming a civil litigation attorney.
Ideal way to spend a free night
Depends on the night of the week but I always enjoy hanging out with my friends, grabbing dinner, or going out for drinks.
High school or secondary school
Pennsylvania Leadership Charter School; West Chester Pennsylvania
Previous college
I transferred out of Grove City College. I thought transferring was easier as I had already been through a lot of the anxiety surrounding admissions .
