On attending Rensselaer: "I was mostly attracted to the research opportunities at RPI. In addition, a smaller body size is better suited to my taste and gives me a better sense of community." - September 2020 

Benefits of undergraduate community: "Meeting new people. Even if people you meet don't become life long friends, they're always willing to help. Also, with so many clubs on campus, you should be able to find friends to stick with you for the rest of your life. In a realistic perspective, it's very easy to grow your network with other people. If you need something for school or for an internship, you should be able to find someone to help you." - September 2020
