Everyone here is on the same level, all the students. It’s not a really competition. There is a really nice sense of companionship here. We are all aiming for the same goal and everyone that I’ve met, no one has tried to push anyone down.”

Just don’t be afraid to make friends! Everyone I’ve met has been super friendly, and so finding similarities with classmates, fellow club members, or even strangers in line at the dining hall is super easy. It’s also different than high school because you meet a much broader variety of people, and so you expand your worldview along the way.”
