Ms. Bonvalot
Transferred to             University of California, Berkeley

Mathilde Bonvalot – France

“I chose BCC because of its proximity to UC Berkeley, but I had no idea what to expect. My professors pushed us to think on our own and not recite and we had many in class debates. After I left BCC, I felt prepared and I knew what to expect at UC Berkeley.”
