Why did you choose Lake Forest College?
Transferring was simple, and Lake Forest College had everything I wanted to take. The biggest thing for me was the close to home experience.
How has transferring changed your perspective on your life and career?
Before transferring, I didn't really know what I wanted to do, but now an interning is really giving me like an idea and a path of what I can and want to do. The Career AdvancementCenter at Lake Forest College made it really easy to find an internship. I guess just living in the beautiful area of Lake Forest has also been a big change. It was a big change of scenery, especially with not living at home anymore.
Do you have a favorite spot on campus?
I guess the beach isn't technically on campus, but it's so close, and I love it there.
What advice do you have for transfer students considering Lake Forest College?
I would say communicating often is key. Get the answers to your questions, because they are available and there are people who will help you, like admission counselors.
