Bio
Why Lehigh? “Lehigh University is well known for being an excellent academic institution. Not only would Lehigh be a great education, but they are also the home of the Mountain Hawks. These Mountain Hawks have a great athletic reputation. I consider myself a person who is looking for both of those qualities as I pick the college that is fit for me. On my official visit I was taken on a tour and I was able to see the beautiful stone buildings. I have a strong passion for this type of architecture, which is another reason why Lehigh is the place for me.”
