How did you choose MMC?

I found Marymount on college board. I chose MMC because of its location and size. The size of NYC can be overwhelming and its great to be in a small learning environment where you can still interact with people from every culture.

What is your major?

B.A. International Studies and B.A. History

What is your favorite class?

French Grammar and Composition

What do you feel is unique to the MMC Campus?

The faculty is great and all have amazing experiences in their field, not just a degree.

What do you love about NYC?

I love that the city is a world of endless possibilities. One moment I can be at the Guggenheim and the next, I could be enjoying the amazing nightlife the city has to offer.

Future Goals:

I hope to graduate with my BA in International Studies and History. After that, I hope to join the Peace Corps.
