Why Mount Holyoke?: I chose to attend Mount Holyoke for the unique experience of attending an inclusive all-women's college that is known for its well-rounded education as well as being able to be apart of this fantastic team. After talking with a recent graduate my senior year for many months about her time at Mount Holyoke, I fell in love with the school and felt a sense of belongingness even though I had never visited due to COVID. After seeing her enthusiasm and excitement talking about Mount Holyoke, I knew then that this was the place that would be and became my home away from home.
