Q&A with Eva

Why did you choose Nicholls?

I chose Nicholls because of the Coach Meenakshi. I knew that he will be the most crazy and the best to improve my tennis and be a better person. Also because my English was not so good so I wanted to go to a small university, familiar than a big one at the beginning of my career in college. Leaving your home and going to another continent is hard!

What are you majoring in?
I am majoring in business. I want to do something with a relationship to sports.

Who was the major influence in your life?
My father studied all about sports. I wanted to study this but classes were at the same time as my tennis practice so I chose business, which is a good program at Nicholls.

What do you like most about Nicholls?
Nicholls Is small, familiar, and if you are an athlete, everybody knows you. Also, with our sports programs, we can make Nicholls well-known. I want to put Nicholls ranked in tennis because I can see a lot of potential in this little amazing university. Geaux Colonels!
