Why Mount Holyoke?: I chose Mount Holyoke because I enjoy the historically women's college environment and I really wanted to finish my college career at an HWC. Additionally, I've lived in Colorado and California before and I'd never truly experienced the East Coast so I thought it would be fun to try something new!
