I was initially drawn to Seton Hill for the direct-entry accelerated Physician Assistant program as I plan to become a Physician Assistant specializing in cardiothoracic surgery. Seton Hill has offered me an amazing program that will help me achieve that goal faster than the average person.
What led me to my final decision was the friendly and welcoming environment. I also really enjoyed the small school size because I knew it would help me foster deeper connections with my professors and other students on campus.
I really enjoy taking part in all of the various opportunities that are available on campus and am currently a resident assistant, Black Student Union officer, Student Ambassador and a part of the volleyball club. My involvement in these organizations has completely changed my life by offering me an opportunity to meet different people. I have also had the chance to improve my leadership and public speaking skills, while simultaneously becoming a better person. The friends I have made along my journey are the reason I have had such a great experience.
I am proud of the person I have become and the knowledge I have gained in the short time I have been here.
