Monmouth & You

Why did you choose Monmouth?

I chose Monmouth because both of my parents attended Monmouth College, so I am a legacy student! I loved the idea of smaller class sizes to build closer relationships with my professors and peers, and I think that is one of the many wonderful opportunities at Monmouth College. I have also been able to utilize the many different areas of involvement that Monmouth offers, like participating in student clubs and organizations, being an athlete, joining Greek Life, and working as a student employee.

What advice do you have for students searching for a college?

You will sense a feeling of home when you are visiting the right place. Go with your gut!

What advice do you have for students who choose Monmouth?

Be as involved as possible and take risks to develop yourself and grow as a person. Go up to that person, take that class, study abroad, and step out of your comfort zone!
