Why MHC: "Being away for a year, has actually made me realize how exceptionally lucky we are at MHC. Here you are able to feel at home knowing all along that we are being prepared for the world beyond this beautiful campus. MHC is a where you will create your own family, your friends will not only become close confidantes but a source of inspiration which pushes you to achieve more. So now the question is why not MHC? "
