I chose Crystal over other schools for two main reasons: a strong sense of community, and specialized programs. During my application process when comparing schools after touring, I felt that Crystal set itself apart. Similar to the other schools, when I visited Crystal I felt scared, and uncertain. Although these feelings were quickly alleviated when I met multiple Crystal students, who were enthusiastic to talk and include me. As I went through my tour I got to see the student social life, I noticed it was really strong and connected. I knew I wanted to be a part of this small, inclusive community. I was trying to avoid a school that had large amounts of social drama, which Crystal didn’t confer. In addition, the programs that Crystal offers are another reason I wanted to attend. Their in-depth robotics team, and large variety of clubs seemed great.
