I applied to five different colleges during my senior year in high school. I got accepted to four out of the five that I applied to. After tours and visits I decided on Lebanon Valley College, LVC, and here are a few reasons why!
1. It had the exact major I wanted
I am a Neuroscience major and of all the schools I applied to LVC was the only one that had exactly what I wanted and did not require me to make my own.
2. It is a small school
A small school means smaller lecture sizes and the professors know you on a personal learning level than at some bigger schools. I like that fact that professors have the time to give you the one on one time that you need in order succeed and that they want to help you succeed.
3. It is in a small town
I am from a small town in Carroll County, Maryland, and I am not a huge fan of being in a big city. Therefore LVC was perfect for me because it is located in the small town of Annville, Pennsylvania which has similarities to my hometown, making me feel more at home.
4. It is close to home
LVC is located about an hour and a half from my hometown. I like this because if I need to go home for any reason it is not too far away and I can be there in no time.
5. It is 10 minutes away from Hershey
Do I even need to explain? It is "The Sweetest Place on Earth"
6. LVC has such a pretty campus
No matter the season, the campus is always so pretty
