I heard about Ferrum during my sophomore year of high school because my best friend was looking at colleges and had fallen in love with Ferrum. As I drew closer to my senior year, I too began to receive information from Ferrum College. I found out that I qualified for the Boone Honors academic scholarship. I actually applied to Ferrum as my back-up school in case my two first-choice schools did not work out, and they didn't. However, I tell people all the time that Ferrum is my blessing in disguise. While it was not my first choice, it has become my home. I love walking down the sidewalk and being able to say hello to all of my professors! I was able to do literary research as a freshman and participate in two conferences with my findings. I find myself calling Ferrum home more and more. There is honestly no place in this world where I would rather be receiving my education.
I am very involved on the Ferrum campus. I am the founder and president of the Ferrum College Lions Branch Club. It is a service-based organization that focuses on health. I am also the secretary of the Spanish Club. This club is also a community service organization with a focus on the Hispanic community. I am a member of the Boone Honors Program. I am also an Admissions Ambassador for the Ferrum College Admission's Office. Being so involved in the Ferrum College community has allowed me to fully enjoy my college career so far!
