ALUMNI SPOTLIGHT
“I chose to attend Merrimack after attending the open house where I got the chance to experience what it would be like pursuing my degree in exercise science, along with what opportunities the School of Nursing and Health Sciences provided for their students.
I also wanted to continue my figure skating career through college, and Merrimack had a club figure skating team I would be able to join. Merrimack’s Exercise Science major provided me with the essential groundwork of knowledge to prepare me to be successful when pursuing my doctorate degree in physical therapy.”
