Today we’re excited to feature more incoming transfer Rowan Profs. Ella H. will transfer from Rowan College at Burlington County; Tanisha S. will transfer in from Stockton University; and Leah D. is joining us from Camden County College.
Welcome to Rowan! Could you share with us one thing you are looking forward to at Rowan University? (Personally, academically, anything!)
Ella H: I’m looking forward to making long lasting friendships and becoming more immersed in my psychology career!
Tanisha S: I am looking forward to seeing what classes I would take, what research I could join and where I could find leadership opportunities.
Leah D: I am looking forward to meeting and collaborating with other education majors.
What is one hobby, activity, sport or club that you’re involved in that you’d like to continue at Rowan? (If any.)
Ella H: I’m hoping to continue my choir experience after not having participated in it since high school.
Leah D: I am involved in [honor society] Kappa Delta Pi at Camden County College and would like to continue my work with Rowan’s Kappa Delta Pi.
Is there anything you’re hoping to discover about yourself at Rowan? Grow a new skill? Try a new interest? Starting a new activity, sport or club? Learn a language? Be a part of?
Tanisha S: I would love to further explore my leadership skills, along with my perseverance. The latter because my desired path requires a lot of work and consistency therefore, my academics will greatly test the amount of perseverance that I contain.
Please share an interest, hobby or like that you have! (Gaming, cartoons, your pets, music, painting, working out, etc.)
Ella H: I love gaming, makeup, and shopping!
Tanisha S: I love listening to music, especially while driving or cleaning.
Leah D: I enjoy traveling with my husband, kids and Irish doodle pup! We have set out to see every lighthouse along the Eastern Seaboard.
What major are you pursuing and why?
Ella H: I’m pursuing a psychology major so I can provide therapy and counseling services to those who need it.
Tanisha S: I am pursing biochemistry. I am pursuing this because I intent to apply to a medical school (hopefully Cooper Medical School) after my undergraduate and this major will take care of all of my academic prerequisites.
Leah D: Health and physical education. All children can find joy in healthy and active lifestyles regardless of physical ability. I want to help children find that joy and encourage them to try new activities.
Do you have advice for other transfers who haven’t committed to a school yet?
Ella H: Don’t feel pressured to go somewhere based off of the opinions of others, go somewhere that’ll make you happy.
Tanisha S: I would recommend to them to see which school best suits their needs regarding housing or being a commuter or regarding the professional field in which they would like to pursue a career.
Leah D: Transferring from a community college to Rowan was an easy process.
Where are you going to live this upcoming year?
Ella H: On campus
Tanisha S: Not sure
Leah D: Commute from home
What is one thing about Rowan itself that you liked, that encouraged you to commit?
Ella H: My brother went to Rowan and he was treated very well, it seems like a welcoming environment!
Tanisha S: The thing that attracted me to Rowan was its concentration in the medical field. The research that Rowan conducts is huge attraction for me as I would like to pursue plenty of hours in research.
Leah D: Proximity to my home.
