      “When I was looking for Master’s programs, I saw that Chestnut Hill College was in the Top 25 in child psychology. I like that the spiritual energy and the mission align with what I’ve done so far in life. When I walked through the Hall of Philanthropy for the first time, I knew this was where I was supposed to be.”   Read Jennifer’s Story
