Join Our Sisterhood

I like Cottey because of the small population size, and allows us to create really good relationships with faculty, staff and professors that will go beyond graduation.

I think there are two things that make it special. One is the family atmosphere. It's like, the girls really treat each other as sisters. I mean, that's whether you talk to the alums or you talk to the girls that are on campus now. They do feel like a family.

The second thing is the class size. There's no question. My focus is in really science, technology, areas like that. And to have a class size with a maximum of 10 students to a professor, you cannot help but really learn the topic.

What I love about Cottey is I love the amazing suite environment and how it kind of draws people together from all sorts of places all across the world and the country. And I love the small class sizes, and I just love the beautiful scenery of the campus.

When it comes to lasting connections that Cottey, I think the first thing that jumps to any alumnas mind, including my own, is traditions. Traditions are a super unique activity offered here at Cottey. Because not only do they offer that connection, from student to student, but they also offer a connection for our students with every class that has come before them.

I know that personally, while I do love my class, some of my dearest connections were made with people from the class classes in the 70s. And they're still connections that I keep to this day because we met during one founder's weekend.
