Why Ursinus? I chose Ursinus for the small community and family-like atmosphere. I love that I have the opportunity to pursue a major I’m interested in, as well as being able to play the sport I love. Ursinus has a great balance of academics and athletics that allows me to be involved in multiple activities and teams. As soon as I stepped on campus, I knew Ursinus was where I wanted to be for the next four years.
