Transfering to Mount Union
I didn’t have much time to research and carefully consider the school for my study abroad program because I was focused on passing the necessary classes and handling the visa process. As a result, I randomly selected a few schools, and Mount Union ended up being the one chosen. However, to prepare for my arrival, I took a transfer seminar where I learned about Mount Union and different ways I could get involved once I got to campus.
Advice for Prospective Students
Although large universities might be appealing when considering higher education and indeed offer great opportunities for your future, if you are looking for peers you can connect with throughout your life, schools like Mount Union could be a great option. I found open-mindedness in the people at Mount Union whom I met last semester. While it's a small school, there is a diversity of thoughts that creates many opportunities to try and learn new things both inside and outside the classroom.

In addition, I feel like marketing offers a place to reveal my creativity and innovation, so each day brings me new ideas to brainstorm.
