My name is Madi Feng, and I’m a senior from Tonawanda High School. A few weeks ago, the Associate Director of Admissions (Julie Candella) came to visit my school for a pizza party and chat session with students interested in 51³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ. During that session, I was talking with my fellow classmates about how NU has been approaching us. We collectively agreed that NU has gone above and beyond to connect with us. During the session, for example, we were so engrossed in our conversation with Julie that we were caught off guard by the bell! The NU admissions team feels very accessible to us students and they have really helped me with my college search. NU admissions have really made an impact on me and my classmates.Madi Feng High School Student
