Why did you choose KU?
I went to Kutztown Area Senior High School, so I was always drawn to the beauty of the campus itself. When my mother started working at KU, I was always on campus and I loved the sense of community and that “home” feeling it gave me.
What was the transfer process like when you applied?
It was very simple! I applied as a transfer student, and within a couple of days, I got my acceptance letter. The only thing that I was responsible for was getting my transcripts transferred which was a very easy process as well.
What advice would you give to future transfer students to help them feel connected to campus?
Honestly, all I did was I reached out to jobs on campus, and it gave me a list of jobs that I could pick from to get involved with some people and friends while making money. What also helped me was getting involved with groups and clubs. I was really into group chats from my different classes. This helped a lot because we would get together and have study groups.
