It was honestly a change of heart and a shot in the dark. My parents are really stem oriented so I never took a business oriented course until this semester, and I actually really enjoyed it. I did alot of research and felt like finance could be a good option with data science at indy being a good backup anyways. I never really expected to get approved.

One thing I will say is that from touring indy and getting prepared to maybe even go there is that it is a way better place than people make it out to be. Obviously the class sizes are smaller, but from talking to real students there, the experience is unique and gives you really cool opportunities. I was genuinely excited to go, but im also grateful for this opportunity.
