Bryn Mawr would be an ideal fit for the author for several reasons: 1) She comes from a family of strong, independent women and Bryn Mawr's all-women environment would allow her to develop these same qualities and grow into the kind of woman she aspires to be. 2) Academically, Bryn Mawr excels with opportunities for hands-on learning through its low student-faculty ratio and research prospects across departments. 3) Socially and culturally, Bryn Mawr offers clubs matching the author's interests as well as traditions building a sense of community and family away from home.
