Jillian Perota Assistant Director of Admissionperotaj@stjohns.edu
Territory you recruit in: Suffolk County
How many years have you worked in admission: 4 years
Favorite thing about St. John’s University: Networking opportunities and alumni base in NYC. Regardless of your major, you have the chance to meet people within your field and get experience in different career paths!
Advice you would give to a student applying to St. John’s University: Apply early and plan a visit. There is no better way to decide on a school than going for a visit and experiencing the vibe you feel on campus!
Favorite spot-on campus to eat lunch: Einstein Bagels… their iced chai tea is addicting.
Advice you would give to a student who have been accepted to St. John’s University and what they should take advantage of as a first-year student: I would tell accepted students not to hold back asking important questions that can help you decide the best college for you. We offer a lot of support both academically and socially on campus and the best way to experience SJU is getting involved. Also, definitely hit a basketball game at MSG!
