Finding my "fit" at Dartmouth!
Welcome to Dartmouth, '24s! Despite these trying times, we are all super excited to welcome you all to the Big Green. The next four years of your life are going to be among your very best, I have no doubt about it.
During that time, I didn't really understand what "fit" meant. I mean, with home being thousands of miles away from Hanover, where do I even begin? And, to tell you the truth, you can never completely tell if you made the 'right' decision until you've spent some time and actually settle in at college. Sometimes there's not even a 'right' or 'wrong' choice. Some people may take longer than others to find their home or some people may end up ultimately deciding it's not it for them. Wherever you end up choosing for whatever the reason, there are always going to be side stories that weigh in and affect your experience as you go through it.

No freshman year is perfect, and I'm reflecting on a few learned lessons that I wish I knew before attending Dartmouth.


I was attracted by the opportunity to engage with first-year residents and shape their Dartmouth experiences, in addition to working with other UGAs and staff who shared my interest in helping others.


After almost a year off-campus, I came back to campus committed to the winter experience and I am simply loving it.


We so very wish you could step onto Dartmouth's campus yourself to witness the beauty of our winters live, but COVID-19 has made visiting campuses extremely difficult. I would love to share some of my favorite photos from this past snowy week!


With lots of things (understandably) still closed on campus, it's nice to know that study spaces are beginning to open up again in a safe and responsible way.


From classes to extracurriculars to book club, there are endless communities to join at Dartmouth!


Take a look at a few activities I do during Winter term as an on-campus student!


In previous winters, I was able to skate on Occom Pond, usually at events with my Living Learning Community, and I'm glad to see that we're still able to take part in such winter festivities even with COVID-19 restrictions.


International students like me are no strangers to choosing their College without being able to physically visit. Now, I believe everyone is in that situation, and I decided to gather some thoughts on my choice!
