Undergraduate / "My academic interests in engineering and my friend" - Lehigh Admissions [5]
Prompt: Why is Lehigh a good match for you? What contributions will you make to the academic experience and to campus life? (As a guideline, your response should be between 150-250 words.)
A very close friend of my family graduated from Lehigh and strongly recommended I go visit. I respect him and trust his opinion, so I visited during an open house event. I didn't know what to expect but I was very excited.
My academic interests in engineering have grown into a passion for wanting to dig deeper in the area of civil engineering. I believe The P.C Rossin College of Engineering and Applied Science would offer me the opportunity to build on my math, science and leadership skills and open up new and exciting challenges for me. Another factor that excited me about Lehigh is the chance to customize my learning experience and study across disciplines.
To balance my learning experience at Lehigh, I would like to assist with the South Bethlehem Neighborhood Center. I currently enjoy tutoring the freshmen math class at my school and I believe in helping others and contributing to my community. I believe everyone is entitled to a good education and given the tools to do well, anyone can succeed.
I remember Dean Washington telling the group that if during our many college visits, you feel a "wow", then you should trust your feeling. after my tour at Lehigh, I felt that wow.
