Why I Chose Santa Clara: I chose SCU due to its fantastic business program, small class size and amazing financial aid offer. The location and the surrounding area are optimal for my career, as I hope to work around the Silicon Valley with a large company. I’m looking forward to working hard to help get this program national recognition. I’m excited to be a part of this large recruiting class and row for such a prestigious university.
