B.S. , Bioengineering
I chose Stanford because of the people. When I was a Pro-Fro [prospective freshman], it was definitely more of a feeling, a gut-based decision to come here.

But starting during Admit Weekend, and throughout my four years at Stanford, I continued to meet so many cool people who are changing the world.

I honestly think there’s no other place I could have had the opportunity to pick the brains of so many different people, see how they think, see how they approach problems, and really incorporate that into how I approach the world.
