I'd advise an Alma freshman to

Don’t be scared to take a chance - look at the flyers around campus, if something interests you, go and find out if it’s something you want to do.

I'd tell a student considering coming to Alma

Alma is like home.

What I like most about studying at Alma is

All the opportunities that are offered and the amazing students and professors you meet along the way.

My favorite part about living on campus is

You are less than a 5 minute walk to everything and everyone.

I went to

I did a Spring Term in China with Dr. Dai. I stayed with a host family in Wuhan, visited schools and met some amazing people. I ate everything from meat dumplings to pigs feet, I’m proud to say I tried everything. I explored the Forbidden City and climbed the Great Wall. It was one of the greatest experiences of my life, and I hope to go back one day.
