How did Albion help you get there?

Albion College has provided me with countless opportunities that have allowed me to get the most out of my college experience. Unique off campus programs—the Philadelphia Center and studying abroad— have encouraged personal development. Additionally, the Carl A. Gerstacker Institute for Business and Management and Prentiss M. Brown Honors Program have allowed me to gain relevant experience through internships and by writing an Honors Thesis. These opportunities would not have been possible without the support of the Albion network, from faculty and professors to alumni.

For me, Albion…

Is a community unlike any other. I will forever be grateful for the friendships I found, faculty and professors I met, and memories I made.
