WHY HOPE CHOSE VCSU
Hope Ishizaka, VCSU student
VCSU is a unique experience and a unique place. Yes, it’s small, but that tight knit community is going to turn into family. I think of all my friends I have met because I am here. All my professors and staff genuinely care about your wellbeing. If you are looking for a place like that, I think you should consider VCSU. That tight knit community goes such a long way. In the past four years I’ve made so many great connections with so many great people because that family aspect is so huge here.
A campus where you can thrive.
