Major: Psychology
"When I first toured the Saint Joseph College, I was impressed with the beautiful campus. I immediately felt at home. The tour guides knew the names of people they passed and they knew our names! I felt that I would be just a number at a bigger college. I am not a number at SJC. Professors know me by name and are very approachable; they are even available by cell or text.
Out of all the colleges I considered, SJC offered me the largest scholarship, actually making it less expensive than the others. I would not have been able to afford college at all without financial aid and scholarships.
One of the greatest strengths of Saint Joseph College is women empowering women. Students are encouraged to do different things. When I first came to this College, I was shy, but I found my voice in leadership roles offered on campus. I became a student ambassador. Now, it is very easy for me to give presentations before groups of people."
