School Description
Dominican University traces its roots to the Sinsinawa Dominican Sisters of the Most Holy Rosary, who founded the institution's first embodiment in the year 1901. At the time, it only admitted women to its college until after the early 1920s, when it relocated to its current site in River Forest and started accepting co-educational students. By 1997, it was renamed to Dominican University to reflect not only its Catholic Dominican heritage, but as well as the evolution of the institution throughout the years.
Today, Dominican University enrolls over 3,500 students across 20 academic departments through which it offers over 50 baccalaureate majors and minors, as well as 9 master's degree programs in areas ranging from arts and sciences, business, communication, computer science, education, social science, to theological studies. Dominican University's main campus in River Forest sits on 30 acres of land that boasts of state-of-the-art facilities such as a more than 70,000 square-foot central library, 2 theaters, and 4 residence halls available to freshmen students and upperclassmen alike.

1994-1998, Bachelor’s Degree
A great athletics program and a close approach to helping students succeed
DU provides a unique value based on ethics-centered management education. I was a member of the varsity soccer team that won the NAIA 1997 championchip. At my Business Ethics class I learned to chanel my sports spirit towards work ethic, discipline, competition, team work and leadership. It made me being committed to company values and customers to the point that I am able to build high levels of trust. On one hand customers trust me with ther business, on the other the company supports me 100% in everything I ask for. Thanks to it, I was number 1 best sales director worldwide in a position that needed someone to be centered and ethic. Furthermore, we build a high performing relationship and beat the competition for 4 years straight. Personally, I think that this a value that you carry over for life and not that many universities can provide.

Real World application of knowledge gained
Dominican University afforded me the opportunity to apply theoretical knowledge into real world application as the knowledge was gained. The practical application assisted me greatly by enforcing the core principles that were gained during my time with Dominican. The small class sizes and diverse student population afforded a broad knowledge base for sharing opportunities.
