A 2025 graduate of Fenwick High School, Meghan will attend Saint Mary's College. She shared that multiple factors played a part in her decision to enroll at Saint Mary's.

As a student at Saint Mary's, Meghan will major in Mechanical Engineering and Physics.

We asked Meghan:
Why did you choose to attend a Catholic college/university?
I chose to attend a Catholic institution because I wanted to surround myself with people who root themselves in similar core values. I loved the people I met and the campus. Saint Mary’s gives me all that and more.
What aspect of your college/university are you most excited about?
I am most excited to explore a new place and meet new people!
What advice would you share with high school seniors as they begin their senior year?
I would encourage rising high school seniors to be observant and to absorb as many final high school experiences as possible.
What is one fun fact about you?
One of my life goals is to walk El Camino de Santiago through Spain.
