Molly Andrade Miss America Video Transcript

- I'm Molly Andrade.

0:01
I'm going to my junior year here at Endicott College,

0:03
studying Business Management, and I recently

0:06
captured the title of Miss Rhode Island,

0:08
so I'll be competing live on NBC, December 19,

0:11
for the title of Miss America.

0:13
I am incredibly grateful for Endicott.

0:15
This has been one of the greatest opportunities

0:18
for myself and so many other students.

0:20
One of the biggest sellers Endicott has always been

0:22
our internship program, and that has really

0:24
set me up for success, not only

0:25
in the workforce and in life, but also

0:27
in the Miss Rhode Island Competition.

0:29
I felt really prepared, calm,

0:30
and ready to answer any question that came my way.

0:33
So, when I started my college search,

0:36
the first thing that I looked for was a home campus feel.

0:39
I wanted something that was small and intimate

0:41
where I felt like my voice and my opinion mattered,

0:43
and that's exactly what Endicott provides every student.

0:46
So, I have a small class size.

0:47
I have that intimate learning experience

0:49
with my teachers, there's just so many

0:51
opportunities that everybody can take advantage of.

0:52
There's so much to do on campus.

0:54
It's so much fun.

0:55
Get involved and do something and you're just going

0:56
to flourish.
