Why I Chose Salve Regina: I chose to attend Salve Regina University because I want to make a difference. I want to show the people of my Hartford CT that if I can strive to achieve greatness after high school, they can do the same. I want to better the people around me, as well as myself. I came from a community of people that care and only want to see the best in me; and my goal was to find a college community with the same attributes. Salve Regina University was that community.
