Why Ella Casano Chose Stanford
- “As soon as I visited Stanford, I recognized that it is home to people who are extremely dedicated and hardworking in everything that they do, and who are determined to pursue everything to the best of their ability, whether it be in athletics, academics, or elsewhere. Every person that I’ve met at Stanford has been incredibly welcoming, and I knew as soon as I visited that Stanford was a community that I wanted to be a part of.”
