Student & Alumni Stories
While we can gush about Techers for hours and hours, it's best you get to know their experiences through their own words! We know you might be wondering: Do students sleep? What do they do for fun? How do they balance academics with…everything else? Read these stories and the student blog to get a sense of what Techers really think about Caltech.
Isabel de la Torre Roehl grew up blocks from Caltech. When she arrived on campus, she discovered a world she didn't expect.
Ayooluwa Odemuyiwa discovered her voice at Caltech, and used it to become a forceful advocate for student mental health and other issues.
Miles Jones learned an important lesson at Caltech: Don't be afraid to fail. Ask for help early and often, and turn pitfalls into learning experiences.
