Mary Karnazes '15 Recruiting Profile
Video
November 2013Personal Statement
My name is Mary Karnazes, I am a junior in high school. My goal is to play golf in college and also earn an undergraduate degree in international business.
I have been working very hard in improving my golf game over the last 3 years. Prior to attending high school in the US, I was living in Europe (Netherlands) with my parents. During that time I had the opportunity to visit multiple European countries and also play golf in some of the most prestigious European courses. I attended a European International School and was also able to study 2 extra languages, French and Spanish, in conjunction with English as my primary language.
Currently I maintain a high GPA including taking AP and Honors classes. I am very active in the Greek Orthodox community volunteering my time to support our senior center and other church activities. I’m also an active Greek Youth Folk dancer and participate in multiple events and competition venues. I speak fluent Greek.
My goal is to attend a college that can offer me a strong competitive golf environment with a combination of a strong academic education.
