TCU Class of 2021,

As your senior year is coming to a close and you’re preparing to leave behind your family, friends and hometown, I’m sure you’re experiencing a wide range of emotions as many high school graduates do. However, as this chapter of your life comes to a close, you are about to experience an extraordinary new one. While there are thousands of places you could have chosen to go to continue your education, you by far chose the best one. TCU has provided me with a second home, family, and countless opportunities to grow academically, spiritually, and as a person as a whole. Throughout my freshman year at TCU I felt nothing but whole heartedly welcomed and supported, and I can assure you that you will feel the same when you step foot on campus in August as well.

Going off to college for the first time can be hard. It’s hard to say goodbye to the people and places you’ve grown up knowing, it’s hard to adjust to a new way of life, and it can be scary not knowing what the future holds. However, TCU made my transition into college so easy, and I am so thankful that I chose to attend such an incredible university. As you spend your last few months in your hometown, appreciate every minute you have with your family, friends, pets, and home. However, keep in mind that when August does come, you’ll get the chance to meet some of the best people you’ll ever know and make some of the best memories you’ll ever have. While change can be scary, the fact that you will be attending TCU will make your transition into college one of the best experiences you will ever have. There are so many good things to come, and while you may experience a lot of emotions when you arrive at TCU in the fall, I can promise you regret won’t be one of them.

Sincerely,

A Member of the TCU Class of 2020
