 My 2 Cents’ Worth: You’re admitted, now what?
“When I was a high school senior, I received acceptance letters from every university I applied to. That meant I had
to do some serious thinking about where
I actually wanted to go to school…” Read Carly’s story.

Favorite Thing About SPU: At SPU, there is a holistic approach to education. Professors are not only concerned with what students will learn academically; they also care about how students will personally develop during their time here. The faculty and staff genuinely believe in you and help you to succeed.
Advice for high school/transfer students: Know yourself. When making a decision on which university to attend, know what is important to you and what interests you. If you have a grasp on what you value and who you are, you will have an easier time figuring out how you will fit into that university. |
