Hello from Lee University! My name is Caitlin Schrider, I am excited to be here to help you through the exciting process of making important college decisions.
I am the Admissions Counselor for the Northeast region of the United States. Those states include Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Washington D.C., West Virginia, Vermont, and Virginia.
As soon as I spent some time on Lee’s incredible campus, interacted with students, faculty and staff, and understood all that Lee had to offer, the decision to apply was an easy and exciting one! I studied Elementary Education at Lee. I chose a minor in pre-law. My professors were amazing to work with, and I felt well-prepared as I stepped out into the “real world” post-graduation! The classes that I took allowed me to explore my passions and calling on an academic level.
Throughout my time at Lee, I was able to grow, be challenged, and experience a lot of important and life-changing events. Lee offered ways for me to get plugged in, to pursue several different things that I am passionate about. Lee University Campus Choir allowed me to help lead worship, meet new people and travel while still being a student and focusing on my grades. I experienced community and spiritual growth during my time in a Greek club, and had a lot of fun during intramurals, small groups and special events we hosted. My leadership skills were tested and grown through opportunities like Summer Honors, service projects and other campus events.
Lee University is a place that can change your life. There is an incredible sense of community here. Our academics and spiritual life are held to a standard of excellence, and there is certainly a place for everyone to be involved!
I consider it an honor to be able to correspond with you, answer any questions you may have, and share with you my experiences from this amazing university!
