On attending Rensselaer: "I was drawn to Rensselaer because of the rigorous engineering program and the intense, competitive and passionate hockey team and staff." - July 2021

"I was attracted to Rensselaer because of its renowned and rigorous engineering that I could accompany with the competitive Division I hockey program." - July 2022

Benefits of undergraduate community: "Professors and fellow students will always challenge you as it is a very competitive atmosphere." - July 2021

"It is a privilege to attend Rensselaer because of the academic resources that they provide such as study groups, study sessions, clubs, teaching and learning assistants, etc. The best benefit for me is that I get to play the sport that I love and work to continue to build that program, while also progressing in my degree that will hugely prepare me for my future career." - July 2022

Why RPI: "I was attracted to RPI because of their excellent engineering programs, which intrigued me because of my interest in math and science. Along with the prestigious academics, I was impressed with campus atmosphere and Houston Field House. I went into the college search process knowing that I wanted to attend a smaller university, like my high school, an environment in which I know I can thrive. RPI can provide me with the opportunity to achieve my hockey and academic goals in a great college community." - June 2019
