Advice I would give to incoming students...

Do not be afraid to give yourself a little push and put yourself out there! Meeting new people can be pretty nerve-wracking at times, but it is also so rewarding and you might end up meeting some life long friends! Do not be afraid to introduce yourself! I met my now best friends by asking them if they'd like to go to meal hall with me on my second day at Mount A!

How have I changed since coming to Mount A...

I have changed and grown a lot since coming to Mount A. Over my past three years here, I have learned lots about myself that I did not know before! I learned that balancing my academic career with my social life is very important! With some trial and error, I also learned how much I am able take on at once, and when I am in need of a break. When it comes to learning, everyone moves at their own pace. I always heard people say "university is not a race!" and that is very true!

I chose Mount A because...

it felt like home. Of the few maritime schools that I visited, Mount A felt the most welcoming! After touring Mount A back in 2019, I could not wait to start to start my journey here as a Mount A student!
