My name is Aishwarya Das. I'm from Brooklyn, New York and I am an incoming freshman in the City College of New York. I will be majoring in architecture, which is why I chose CCNY, seeing as it's one of the few colleges in New York with a well-known architecture program. In my freshman year, I'm excited to be taking classes meant for me and my major, rather than taking the same classes as everyone else as it was in high school. I hope to accomplish my goal maintaining an A in each of my classes. Besides this, other challenges I anticipate during my freshman year is adapting to the college community, making new friends and managing my time.
