Describe your college experience

It’s been a huge adjustment coming from a smaller 2 year agriculture school to UNC but the experience has been great! Professors and councilors are super helpful when needed and happy to answer any questions I may have. The UNC CAPS center is also a great program to have someone to talk to and has really benefitted my transition here. There are TONs of likeminded and smart people here that are also happy to help!

Tip for future students

Join clubs. Joining a club has really helped with me opening up and talking to a larger group of people. It helped me connect with like minded people who prioritize acedemics. I also highly recommend prioritizing your mental health, these classes are hard.

Favorite class

Human growth and development has been my favorite class, ANTH 318. Although I’m very excited for my upcoming classes, this class has been super engaging and fun while also teaching me a LOT! I highly recommend the class and professor.

Career goals

Veterinary medicine

Ideal way to spend a free night

Relaxing, school is hard and I need all the breaks I can get!

High school or secondary school

Orange County high school, Orange, Virginia.

Previous college

Fort Scott Community College, Fort Scott, Kansas. It was a big transition coming from a small school but UNC made it very easy. The councilors are great to work with it and the orientation explains SO much information!
