“The college process was pretty easy. I was able to figure out what I wanted in a school right away, so that really helped me decide where I wanted to apply. I’m excited to end high school but I’m also sad that I’ll be leaving all my friends and family when I go to college. Yes, I’ve heard back from most colleges and gotten in to all the schools at the top of my list. I’ll miss spending time with my friends and family every day and especially my dog. If I could redo the college process, I would apply to more reach schools because I could have gotten in to more if I tried. “

Around this time of year, seniors are going through the college process. The Catalyst members are asking seniors of Notre Dame how the college process has been like and if they are excited to leave home next year. In this interview NDB senior, Emma Loaiza, reflects on the college application process and leaving home next year.
