Colleen McColgan
Transfer Admission Counselor
Hometown: I can’t answer that in one city/state…I was born in Morristown, NJ but moved about every three years. I ended up in Boston for high school and college, so my final answer is Boston! Go Celtics!
Alma Mater: Babson College
Year I Joined TCU Admission: 2022
Areas I Recruit: Transfer Students
Why I Think TCU Is a Great School: The campus is very walkable. I also love the flowers that the Landscaping and Grounds Department plant. They keep TCU beautiful! I also love that our students look happy and will stop to greet each other and chat.
Hobbies and interests: Baking, Reading, Photography, College Sports, and hanging out with my family (immediate and extended). Not necessarily in that order!
Favorite Class in College: Philosophy. I don’t think it would have been without the professor, Tony Celano at Stonehill College. He was funny and such a great teacher that what initially seemed boring was really interesting and relatable.
If You Visited Me in My Office, You’d See: A lot of TCU purple…but not as much as others (give me time) and a crazy number of sticky notes and pens!
My Advice to You: Trust your instincts, but keep your mind open during your college search and when you arrive at your chosen school. College is the time to figure out exactly what you want and what you like. You might surprise yourself!
