• Why I Chose Biola: “To be given the opportunity to study abroad, is a huge privelege, and to do that at a university with fellow followers of Christ even more so. Since moving with my parents, and studying online, I was rather isolated, and am looking forward to interaction with likeminded students, teammatesm and tutors. To be able to run in Biola colours and to work with Coach Sean Henning is something that I look forward to with anticipation."
