NYU just clicked for me during the whole tour—it felt right. It’s close enough to home but still a train ride away, with incredible resources and a huge student body of 40,000. I’ve never lived in the city, so I’m excited to experience that while gaining more independence and freedom to explore. 

At Millbrook, I’ve grown so much. I came in extremely shy, but the supportive community helped me open up, try new things like dance and Singers, and really define who I am. I’ll miss seeing my friends every day, but NYU feels like the perfect pivotal next step.
