Take some time to think about what school will be the best fit for you. If you want a close-knit community of students and professors then this is the place for you. Don’t let Alma’s size fool you! Our students travel all over the world and some of my closest friends from Alma are working as teachers, doctors, policymakers, and accomplished performers all over the US. This place can change your life and you will never regret taking that leap of faith.

Schedule a visit and meet with a professor that’s in your field of interest. Come prepared with questions to ask the professor to make sure Alma is the best school for you academically and for your future career.

My advice to a prospective student is to understand how Alma College allows you to set yourself apart as a student with the countless opportunities that you have while here. Being at Alma allows students to hone in on their interests, pursue them, and collaborate with others in order to enhance their understanding of them.

Walking through campus whenever there’s a snowstorm. Snow changes the entire place and when you get back inside it’s always so cozy!

2013

At the end of my junior year, I had the privilege of co-leading the Alma College Christian Leadership seminar (ACCL). I had attended this seminar as a freshman and had developed lifelong friendships while learning valuable leadership skills and growing in my faith. I was so blessed to be able to give back to the campus and to my peers by co-directing this seminar two years later. From discussions with Dr. Abernathy to service projects to team-building games, it was a powerful, exciting, and exhausting week.
