After graduation, senior Callista Farber plans to attend Moore College. In this senior blog, Farber discusses her plans for the future.

Q: What college will you be attending?

A: I will be attending Moore College of Art and Design.

Q: What are you planning on studying or majoring in?

A: Fashion design.

Q: Why did you decide to go to Moore college?

A: Well, initially I didn’t really know where I wanted to go. But I asked my art teacher, and she recommended a few colleges. I applied to all of them. There’s not really the go-to art school for people like me who want to go into fashion design. I chose Moore because it was going to be cheaper than the most expensive one out of the three. It’s also still pretty nice.

Q: Why do you think this college is the best choice for you? What specifically about the school interests you?

A: Well, it’s close to Altoona. It’s not super close, but it’s still in the state. It’s in a big city where I’ve always wanted to live and has super nice facilities. The school is really cool.

Q: What other colleges were you considering?

A: Albright University and Drexel University, both of which I got accepted into.

Q: Will you be participating in extracurricular activities or sports?

A: Not that I know of, as of right now. If they have any clubs, I might join a club or two when I get there.

Q: What are you most looking forward to in college?

A: The experience of it. I want to see how different it is to high school because people say that it’s drastically different. I just really want to meet new people and experience different types of learning.

Q: What is something that intimidates you about college?

A: Being three and a half hours away from my family in a city that I’ve literally never been to before.

Q: What do you think will be the biggest change from high school to college?

A: Definitely the schedule. Because, with high school, I have to wake up at 5:30 in the morning. With college, you don’t have to wake up at 5:30 if you don’t have a class that day or if you have later classes.

Q: How do you feel about senior year ending?

A: I’m not going to lie. I’m really excited. I’ve been waiting for this day since the first day of school.
