WHY I CHOSE PENN STATE
“I chose Penn State because it has the recipe for success that is imperfectly intertwined with who I am. Penn State provides me with everything that I am, and everything I want to be. If I fit the university completely, I’d have no room to grow. It has a lively, fun, family-based atmosphere that I love and resonate with completely. It has a blue-collar, gritty, get- down-to-work aura that I also love, but intend to be more like. I chose Penn State because it has everything that will make my college experience memorable and meaningful, and I know I will be pushed every day to become a better person, player and student.”
