“I chose Albright because it allows me to do what I love (play sports) and make advancements in my career. I've had multiple internships from Albright's connections and, at the beginning of my senior year, was able to accept a full-time offer upon graduation. I’ve met my lifelong friends at Albright and am so grateful for everything this college has done for me!”
-Alyssa DeVita '26, Accounting Major with Minor in Business Sustainability, Haskell, NJ
"The hands-on experience I got at Albright creating with brilliant and encouraging mentors like Jeffery Lentz are incomparable to any other program."
-Ben Galosi '25, Theatre and Arts Administration Co-Major, Sinking Spring, PA
"I chose Albright College because it felt like the right fit for both my academics and athletics. I wanted to keep playing tennis while studying in an environment where professors actually know their students, and the small class sizes make that possible. The campus also stood out to me — it’s beautiful, calm and has a great atmosphere that makes it easy to feel comfortable and focused.”
-Saba Soroush '27, Business Administration and Computer Science Co-Major, Kerman, Iran
“When I was at RACC, I thought getting my bachelor’s degree would be out of reach - it’s always been hard financially - but my scholarship made getting a degree possible, and it motivates me to continue to succeed.”
-Dylan Sokolovich '24, Communications Major, Reading, PA
