Why did you choose to attend UE?  

I chose to attend UE because of the small campus size and the Direct-Entry PA program. The small campus stood out to me because I came from a small, rural high school. I wanted somewhere that felt more like a community and where I could actually get to know my professors rather than feel as if I was just a number. 

Did you visit campus before choosing UE?

I did visit campus before choosing UE. I noticed immediately how friendly and helpful the staff were upon my arrival. I felt as if they genuinely cared about me and made me feel a sense of belonging. 

What activities or organizations have you been involved with at UE?

I am an Orientation Leader here at UE. I am also a member of Greek Life, EXSS Club, Pre-PA Club, and multiple other clubs and organizations. These organizations and clubs have helped me build many connections across campus and helped me form many new friendships.  

How has your program shaped and prepared you for a future career? 

My program has helped me learn more about the human anatomy and health/wellness as a whole. It has also taught me a lot about what future steps I need to take to prepare myself to become a physician assistant. 

How has UE  been affordable for you?

The financial aid package that UE offered me before I made my decision was very substantial and was more than any of the other colleges I applied to. It stood out to me and helped me solidify my decision to attend UE. 

Why do you recommend UE? 

I recommend UE because I feel like everyone here has my best interests in mind and I have a major support system. The close-knit community here at UE is like nowhere else. Between the professors, advisors, faculty, and friends, I know that I have people who will be there for me any time I need.
