WHY PENN STATE
“I chose Penn State because the minute I stepped on the campus and was able to witness the environment of the Penn State women’s soccer program, I fell in love. You have amazing people working together to create an environment for individual success as well as team success. If you have ever had that moment in your life where you walked away from a situation happy as ever, feeling successful and excited, then you can understand how I felt when I left the Penn State campus on my first-ever visit and how I still feel three years later. Penn State is a campus and environment where you are surrounded by others who are striving for success and will push you to reach your goals as well.”
