Chela Carr
Hello, my name is Chela Carr. I am a junior Economics Major and Marketing Minor at the Chambers College. I chose to attend West Virginia University because of the inviting culture and for all of the opportunities at the prestigious business college. Although I am from Canonsburg, Pennsylvania, WVU feels like home. I decided to become a Neidermeyer Scholar to get more involved on campus. I want to give back to the school and help my peers succeed in the classroom. I believe that this program strengthens students' understanding of the subjects, and I am very excited to be apart of it. A piece of advice I have for freshmen is to try your best to get comfortable being uncomfortable. Your first year of college is all about change and in order to succeed, you will have to try new things that you are not used to doing before. Among this may be studying a little more often and more intensely than you are used to, and putting yourself out there to meet new friends.
