What is your best advice for incoming Mizzou CHS students?

My best advice would be to get involved and go to as many events as you can. This is a great opportunity to build a support system and meet new people. A welcome event for Mizzou CHS is where I met my best friends!

Why did you choose Mizzou’s College of Health Sciences and your respective program?

I chose Health Sciences- Rehabilitation because I knew I wanted to go to Physical Therapy school after ungrad and this program sets me up perfectly to apply to Physical Therapy school.

What dorm did you live in your freshman year?
