Why I chose LMU...
"I chose LMU because I knew, without a doubt, that it was the perfect school for me! Not only did I fall in love with the bluff and the beautiful campus, but I also appreciated the welcoming and friendly vibe that I got from the students. As a first-generation college student, it was important to my family and my that I take this opportunity to receive the best education possible. For that reason, I really responded to the student-to-teach ratio, the close-knit community at LMU and its emphasis on service and faith! I already saw myself as a student here and I am so proud to call LMU my school. GO LIONS!"
