Every academic year at Amherst, several current students work for the Office of Admission as bloggers. Our students are an active and diverse bunch, with majors from Biology to Political Science to Psychology (and many more), from hometowns near and far. Their weekly blogs provide an up-close-and-personal view of Amherst from a variety of perspectives and experiences.

If you have any questions about Amherst, feel free to email any of the bloggers. Plus, meet more students on our Tour Guides and Diversity Outreach Interns pages.

So many students, so many different perspectives!
