College Corner reviews five seniors every week on where they have decided to attend next year, what they’re excited about, and what they love about it.

Name: Finola Summerville

College: Northwestern University

Location: Evanston, Illinois

Mascot: Wildcat

Why Northwestern? 

“My dad is an alum so I’ve always thought about going to Northwestern, but as I did more research into NU I realized it was the perfect fit! I wanted a school that was academically rigorous and had great research opportunities, but would also allow me to have a “normal” college experience; Northwestern checked all of the boxes of what I wanted in a school.”

What are you most excited about? 

“I’m most excited for BIG 10 sports (Go cats!!), exploring Evanston and Chicago, and possibly getting involved in research.”

Name: Hayden Keller

College: Indiana University

Location: Bloomington, Indiana

Mascot: Hoosier

Why Indiana? 

“I chose Indiana because I fell in love with the campus when I visited. It was everything I was looking for in a school — big campus, college town, game days, and close to home. I also went to a seminar at the Kelley School of Business and learned so much about how unique their business school is, and I was pretty much sold after that.”

“I’m most excited to meet new people and get involved in intramural sports, greek life, and business internship opportunities!”
