91¿ì²¥

You might remember when applying to 91¿ì²¥ writing a supplemental essay on why you wanted to be part of our community. Perhaps you scanned the website, identified courses of interest, learned about the Honor Code, or discovered clubs you hoped to join. 

After four years at 91¿ì²¥, we checked in with current seniors to reconsider the question, Why 91¿ì²¥? They reflect on their four years and why they're still choosing to be part of our community.
