Describe your college experience

My transfer to FSU has been nothing but amazing. There is so much to get involved in; the professors are amazing and really great to form connections with. Transferring to a new school can be challenging and nerve-wracking, but you will find your place!

Tip for future students

Get involved! Don't be afraid to go to new club meetings or walk around the involvement fair. All clubs are very open and welcoming. Don't be afraid to ask questions; people are happy to help Going to class will help you succeed rather than just reading off the powerpoints on your own

Favorite class

My favorite class was Criminology My professor was great and took the time to ensure every student understood each topic we were learning. Criminology is super interesting and even better with a great professor!

Career goals

After college, I will be applying to grad school for my MSW- Masters in Social Work and hope to become a sexual assault victims advocate.

Ideal way to spend a free night
