My Travel Story

by: Tori Tonn Start Date: Oct 17, 2016 - End Date: May 4, 2017
Hi there! My name is Tori and I am a current senior at Loyola University. I study biology and Spanish with a minor in Mathematics. I'm currently studying for the MCAT and hope to apply to medical school within the next year.

I'm planning to return to St. Louis University in Madrid, Spain this coming spring in order to save a little money on tuition (as I went part-time in school due to financial difficulties). I've been fortunate enough to study there in the past, learn Spanish, and become a huge 'tapas' connoisseur. I'm taking the opportunity to return since it will end up being more cost effective.

During the semester, I will be taking 19 credit hours of Spanish language/literature and biology/chemistry. I'm hoping to raise funds to pay my tuition via fundraising and a hefty amount of scholarship applications. I'm also searching for an internship for the summer where I could get experience in the sciences/STEM in Spanish (hopefully some sort of research or conservation project on the coast). My internship costs 5,000 dollars, including housing and some other ammenities being covered.

Donations of ANY amount are greatly appreciated. If you're unable to donate but still want to contribute, feel free to share my page on facebook, twitter, or any social media to help spread the word! And thank you for taking the time to read my page!
