  • Why Viterbo? - "I decided to attend Viterbo University primarily because of the excellent Pre-Medicine undergraduate programs that are offered here. Viterbo's 95% acceptance rate into gradaute school helped my worries as a first time college student, and assured me I could succeed there. The staff at Viterbo University who I connected with during the Health Science Scholarship Competition and by applying for the Honors Program helped support me as an individual and allowed me to realize that this university would value me not only as a student, but also as a person. I also chose Viterbo University so that I would have an opportunity to continue running cross country and track, sports I was not ready to give up after losing a year of competition in 2020. Coach Fritsch helped me realize that running in college was not only an attainable goal for me, but also that it would be a continuation of the joy and excitement that I found in these sports in high school.  Overall, I chose Viterbo because this university will allow me to customize my experience to maximize my personal, academic, and athletic opportunities for the future."
