Why did you chose Central?
I chose Central because from my first visit and still to this day, Central has felt and continues to feel like home. Everyone, from staff to students, is more than welcoming and willing to go the extra mile to make you feel at home and that is something I have always noticed and cherished. Not only this, but a winning golf program and great facilities attracted me here as well.
