Why I Chose Marist College

I remember going to Marist College in December 2011 to take my LSAT exam and thinking.. wow.. this is a beautiful university!!  Prior to December 2011 I was involved in 2 car accident which led to several surgeries.  Because I already had my LSAT scheduled, I decided to still take it.  I remember being in excruciating pain while taking the exam.  After getting my results, I decided that I was going to put law school on hold and focus on rehabilitating completely before taking the LSAT again.  Three years later my daughter's company was offering a 25% discount for employees and families living in the same household.  I thought, what better way to prepare myself with law school than with a communication graduate degree!  Not to mention that Marist was also offering a discount to new students that graduated with a GPA of 3.5 or higher.  I submitted all of my documentations, personal statements, recommendations and was accepted!  It was definitely one of the highlight moments in my life!!

  1. What a great story and you are still driving two hours each way every day? I am so impressed! After I had a car accident with no injuries, I would only drive around town. It took me a year to get back on the highway. You are amazing!

  2. It actually took me 3 years to drive through the same location of the accident. I would take the long way to avoid anxiety. I finally decided to face my fear and drive through the location. I still feel some type of anxiety, but it's getting better. Thank you!
