Why did you choose this school? “From my first visit to campus, Coach Meghan (McDonough) and all the girls on the team made me feel like part of the family. The challenging academics, size of the school and being part of a competitive D3 lacrosse program was exactly what I was looking for in a college. The campus is great and I really like the location with easy access to the city. Everything about CUA is a perfect fit for me.”
