WHY I CHOSE SANTA CLARA: I chose Santa Clara because of its great reputation academically and athletically. When choosing a college, I wanted to be a part of a school that would provide for my academic curiosity and also allow me to continue my athletic interests.  Santa Clara has a history of creating students with a passion for learning on and off the field.
