Why I Chose AU: “I chose AU because when I came on my official visit in the fall of my senior year in HS, I bonded quickly with the entire swim team and coaching staff. I felt if I was to be a part of the team at AU, they would push me in and out of the pool and I would be able to have a great time with them as well.”
