| Lauren Anderson “I started communicating with the O’Neill School in 2016 and was impressed with their genuine interest in making my tour a unique and memorable experience. The professors challenge us in our ability to be experts in the field, while prioritizing our success once we graduate over what grades we receive in the classroom.” |
| Michael Cervantes “Connecting with current MAAA students helped affirm my career shift from just being a musician to being an arts advocate and administrator. The change is unlike what most others do when entering their masters and talking to current students who were in the same boat made it seem less daunting.” |
 | Elias Hanna “Connecting with other students has been one of the greatest assets for me. We work together on assignments, help each other understand class material, pick each other up when we’re down, and act sort of like a family. We take care of each other.” |
 | Tyrian Robertson “The community of students have been supportive through some of the hardest times and by giving advice on classes and professors as well as passing on knowledge about potential opportunities. There is a strong sense of sharing knowledge and information with first years and vice versa.” |
 | Katlin Suiter “Experience Day allowed me to see first-hand O’Neill’s dedication to scholarship, as well as the vibrant, collaborative community it has to offer.” |
