Katelyn Keese Moves on South

Growing up in Poolesville, Maryland, Katelyn Keese spent much of her early teen years dreaming of going to college. She loved and enjoyed every stage of her education but was always mature beyond her years. When she was young, an older cousin was accepted to the University of South Carolina and her whole family packed up to visit her. Young Katelyn Keese was thrilled by the beautiful campus and the energy of the thousands of young people milling about. She never forgot the feeling of that campus when she began her own search for colleges.

Katelyn Keese could have really gone anywhere. Her grades were amazing and the list of extra-curricular activities on her college application was impressive. She was the all-American girl that turned everything she touched into gold. She applied to colleges all over the country as she has a thirst for adventure and exploration. She wanted to leave her small town and discover something new. When the acceptance letter came in the mail from University of South Carolina, Katelyn Keese could not ignore the utter excitement she felt. She decided right then and there that she was definitely meant to have her college experience in this place that struck her so many years prior.

Her parents were happy because she would be on the same coast as them and it would not be too difficult to get her to come home occasionally. Katelyn Keese began voraciously researching the history of the school and of what she could expect out of life in the southern state. It all seemed to fit with her personality just fine. There were tons of organizations, clubs, sports and opportunities awaiting her on the historic campus. Katelyn Keese loved warm weather, golf and beaches so she looked forward to spending her down-time on the South Carolina coast.
