What did you think about UE after your campus visit?

The only time I visited UE was my interview day and I loved it immediately! The vibrant campus colors and the architecture of the buildings made me feel connected with the campus.

Why did you choose to attend UE’s PsyD program over other doctoral programs?

I loved the intimate and smaller PsyD program here. I would tell other students going through the search for doctoral programs that it's ok to not have everything figured out yet, take everything one day at a time. While in school, tell yourself to just make it to the end of the week and repeat that weekly.

Why do you recommend UE?

I have loved the ability to connect with the higher cohorts and teachers, that can only be achieved because UE prioritizes making a space that feels like home.

Hobbies:

Writing poetry, traveling to a new country, or reading a book from any genre.
