Why Merrimack?
"The school's close proximity to my home and work offered me a great opportunity to be able to have a full-time job in Software Engineering, while also allowing me to pursue my master's degree in that field. Additionally, being from Andover, I grew up rooting for the Warriors and it was really cool to have the opportunity to participate in Division I athletics at my hometown school."
