When deciding on a school, the biggest thing I was worried about was being lost. I did not want to go to a school with a huge campus or huge classes where I would feel lost in the crowds. Thankfully, Bradley is the exact opposite of this. The size of Bradley just made everything seem perfect. The class size meant that the professors really care about each individual student and the professors want to do everything they can to help you succeed. The mid-sized campus meant you can get around everywhere within minutes, and you would always be running into friends and getting those nice little surprises every day. 

The campus just felt like home, and I was able to experience a lot of this before coming to Bradley because my brother went to Bradley. My brother was two years older than me, so I had been visiting Bradley a lot in the years prior to attending. Every time I went and visited, I just felt more and more at home. It was through him and it was through these experiences that I got to see that everything I was told about Bradley was true.

I saw that the professors actually did care; I experienced running into my brother’s friends every day I was there; I felt the “Bradley kindness” that every student who goes here seems to have. I was always told on tours that Bradley had all of these amazing things that I wanted, but it was through my brother and his experience that I was able to confirm that all of this is was true about Bradley. I chose Bradley because it was clearly shown to me that I would be at home.
