I knew I was looking for a small, liberal arts school with D-III tennis, and the first time I visited Union, I knew it was the place for me. The academic opportunities and the ability to make connections with professors at Union stood out as well as the supportive and welcoming community. Union is the perfect combination of everything I wanted in a college.
