Why Yale? "When I stepped on campus for the first time, I knew immediately this was where I needed to be. Attending classes, taking notes alongside students, and engaging with professors reviled the possibilities for me. During the campus tour, I was able to visit the Native American Cultural Center and knew that I could be part of the Native Community. The academics, club opportunities, and supportive atmosphere of Yale will help me grow into who I want to be. I could see that the students and professors genuinely care about each other's success, and I want that to be my college experience."
