Alli McCaulley is headed to Indiana University of Pennsylvania.

Senior Allison McCaulley recently decided to continue her education next year at Indiana University of Pennsylvania.

How many colleges did you apply too?

I applied to three colleges (Mount Aloysius, Penn State, and IUP)

What made you apply to IUP?

My sister goes there, so I know a lot about the school. I like the size of the classes and the campus.

What are you planning to major in?

I’m planning to major in nursing. After I get my BSN, I want to go to graduate school to become a nurse practitioner.

What made you choose this specific major?

I chose this major because I’ve always loved the medical field and helping people. I want to be able to save lives.

What are your feelings on moving on from high school?

I’m excited to move on from high school. I like high school, but I think that it’s time for me to get away from Bellwood. I’m pretty sure I’ll always be a Blue Devil at heart!
