• Why I Chose Biola: “I chose Biola because it was a very good fit for me. I knew that I wanted to run in college, and I got the opportunity to do that here among old and new friends, as well as the opportunity to learn more about Jesus Christ and God through my studies here in the Torrey Honors College. Everything just lined up perfectly, and it was the best fit for me. I also thought that I would really enjoy attending Biola and make a lot of meaningful memories - and companions - here that will hopefully last a lifetime."
