2

Why did you choose an HBCU over a pwi?*

I chose an HBCU over a pwi because I felt as though I could get that actual college experience.

The main purpose for coming to college is to get your education but at an HBCU you’re getting the experience that your ancestors fought for !

3

What is the story of your "experience" at Your HBCU given its heralded status as a stellar and prestigious institution?*

My experience at my HBCU has given me the chance to open up myself more , it has given me the chance to go out for opportunities that I thought I would never get a chance to go out for.

4

"First time" experiences at your HBCU?*

I went out for the Calendar/ Covergirl pageant and after trying 2 times, I won my birthday month - MISS MAY 2019.
