Meagan Higgins. How I ended up at Siena College.

I started to look at colleges during my junior year of high school because that is what I was told to do. Both of my parents went to college and it was expected that I go to school to get a good education. When I visited Siena I fell in love with it for its beauty and how it had everything I wanted. I liked how it was a small campus and it seemed like I would fit in very well. Not many people by me stayed home, so I wanted to go away to. I felt that it would be a good experience to go to school away from home, but not too far away where I felt that it would be difficult to go home if I needed to. My parents and guidance counselors guided me through the process of applying to colleges. They knew that Siena would be a good fit for me, and they knew how much I wanted to go there. I was also very lucky that my parents were able to afford Siena, and provide me with a great education. I am now open to many opportunities that many others do not get the chance to do.
