Why Yale? “I was recently able to visit Yale as a field hockey recruit, and had the opportunity to meet many fellow students and get a real sense of the vibe and culture on campus. I also got an appreciation of the diverse community and how students from different countries, cultures and backgrounds were studying and living together as one. Studying liberal arts at Yale in such an environment will help me broaden my horizon and perspectives of the world, and allow me to become a valued member of society after graduation. I am also excited to be a part of the Yale field hockey community and to contribute in a meaningful way to ensure we become the best team in the Ivy League.”
