Interesting or little-known fact about me: I’m very flexible and can even do the splits. I was also in show choir all four years in high school.
Given the choice, I’ll always order … a buffalo chicken sandwich, wrap or salad. I love spicy food!
Favorite thing about Northwestern: The people: staff, students and professors. They all truly care about you and want to see you succeed on an academic level—but more importantly, want to see you develop as a whole person.
College search advice: Make sure to start your college search early so you’re able to find a place that fits you best. Also, remember the best way to get scholarships is through academic money. On your ACT/SAT and GPA, every point matters!
