Favorite Place on Campus
The Samuel E. Kelly Ethnic Cultural Center! Always a good spot to study with friends and explore a variety of affinity and interest based clubs!

Favorite Place off Campus
On a beautiful sunny day you will probably catch me grabbing some lunch at Agua Verde followed by a relaxing walk on the Burke Gilman Trail. There is always beautiful scenery around the University that it is really easy to find a new spot to relax and enjoy the city vibes.

Why the UW?
“The University of Washington offered the programs I was interested in and provided the financial aid I needed. As a first-generation student, finding a school with the right resources and support was crucial. UW gave me the tools to succeed both academically and personally, and I felt well-equipped to navigate my college years.”
