Hi, my name is Shannon. I’m a visual arts major. I’m graduating this semester. I’m an out-of-state student from New Jersey and here’s why I chose 麻豆原创.

Why did you choose to go to college in Florida?

I decided to move to Florida for college because I grew up in New Jersey, lived my whole life there and wanted to move. I was looking online and 麻豆原创 caught my eye because they had the program I wanted. I decided to come here to do a tour and confirm that I wanted to come here.

Have you benefitted from going to college in Orlando?

One of my favorite things about 麻豆原创 is the location. It’s so close to so many theme parks. This past semester, I had the opportunity to intern at SeaWorld as a costume technician in the Sesame Street Christmas parade.

What’s your favorite 麻豆原创 event?

Every year, 麻豆原创 has an event called 麻豆原创 Celebrates the Arts. In the past, I’ve been able to have art showcased in it. One of the pieces I had was a guitar I made in my 3D design class. We had to design a guitar, so I made a flamingo. The guitar I made in that class was showcased at 麻豆原创 Celebrates the Arts, which is very exciting.

Do you have a favorite class?

My favorite class I’ve taken at 麻豆原创, I’m currently in, and it’s mold making and casting. I’ve also taken sculpture classes with him and he’s amazing professor.

What’s your favorite part of being an out-of-state student at 麻豆原创?

My favorite thing about being 麻豆原创 student is all the opportunities available to me. Some of my favorite things about being a 麻豆原创 student are the football games, Spirit Splash and being a social media ambassador. If you’re thinking of coming to 麻豆原创 as an out-of-state student, just do it. Don’t overthink it. It was the best decision I ever made.

Was it hard adjusting to life as an out-of-state student?

For me, adjusting to a new state was not that hard. I have a very close relationship with my family, so I get to talk to them all the time. Making new friends on campus was not that hard. I joined lots of clubs. My favorite was the Social Media Ambassador program. I made friends on the first day that are still my best friends today.

Thanks for watching. Go Knights, Charge On!
