Student Success

Accounting Student Perspective

When Bobby Arent '24 entered college, his main focus was baseball. However, he soon learned that baseball alone wouldn't fulfill his lifelong goals, and he went on to pursue a degree in accounting and finance at Albertus Magnus College. His transfer from UConn Avery Point to Albertus allowed him to balance academics and athletics effectively. Bobby’s story highlights the importance of pursuing one's passions while preparing for a successful future, making Albertus Magnus College a special place for academic and personal growth.

"One of the most important people here at Albertus is Professor Alan DelFavero... I've probably taken 10 classes with him, and every class, just the way he teaches, he wants you to succeed."
