CLASS OF '17

"I did a lot of research and spoke to people, and a common answer seemed to always be Swedish Institute. In New York, Swedish Institute has the reputation of being the "Harvard" of massage schools. So because I personally always valued the best when it comes to education, I decided to go for a tour of the school. Upon arriving, I immediately knew that this is where I needed to be."
