    When did you start at Viz?
    I started at Viz in 7th grade.
     
    Where did you go to college after Viz, and why did you choose that school?
    I attended Vanderbilt University. In the spring of my senior year, I was invited to spend a few days at Vandy. I was impressed with the beautiful campus and liked that it was in a city. Ultimately, what drew me the most to the school was the great energy around campus and how nice and genuine the students, faculty, and staff were during that visit.

    When did you start at Viz?
    7th grade
     
    Where did you go to college after Viz, and why did you choose that school?
    I attended the University of Tulsa for undergrad. I visited a LOT of colleges, but TU was my last stop. The campus was pretty and not too big or too small. Their history department was focused on subjects I really liked, and the anthropology department had connections for working at the Gilcrease museum. The school also had an enthusiastic recruiter for STL, which helped too. 😊

    When did you start at Viz?
    I started at Viz in August of 2013 as a new Freshman!
     
    Where did you go to college after Viz, and why did you choose that school?
    I went to Boston College and had the most incredible experience there. I had an incredibly intense college search process that involved three separate road trips and a European trip where I visited around 80 different colleges and universities! I was able to see so many different schools and honestly figure out what would be the best fit for me, and BC checked every box. I wanted a mid-sized university near a city that still had a vibrant campus life, and I wanted to double major in theater and psychology, and that is what I did! I am forever grateful to Viz for preparing me so well for college and for helping me attend my dream school.

    When did you start at Viz?
    I started at Viz in the seventh grade. I feel very fortunate that my parents let me choose where I wanted to go to high school. We went to a few different high school nights, but Viz always stood out amongst the rest. I was drawn to Viz’s small class sizes and performing arts opportunities. My parents came to love Viz so much that my mom now works there!

    I started at Viz in ninth grade. At the time, only about 5-6 new students began in ninth grade, as most new Upper School students started in seventh grade.
     
    Where did you go to college after Viz, and why did you choose that school?
    I went to Colby College in Waterville, ME. I chose Colby because I wanted to go to a smaller school in a colder climate that was a bit off the beaten path.
