Why Dartmouth? Freshmen tell us what drew them from afar.

“No matter how intimidating it seemed from the outside, it felt like home: Chilly dark winters feel normal, just less rainy. I fit right in.” —Gabrial “Gabe” Canfield ’21, Ketchikan, Alaska
“Dartmouth’s small enough for close bonds, large enough that it’s not claustrophobic, has world-class academics and a beautiful location.” —Callum Zehner ’21, London, England

“The people! I had a chance to visit for Dimensions Weekend. I left knowing this could be my home away from home.” —Marco Cabrera Aguilar ’21, San José, Costa Rica
“People are just as passionate about making a difference as they are about helping you express your differences. Nothing makes me more content than discord.” —Rachna Shah ’21, Chicago
