Grad student credits UC with supporting Ivy League journey
June 12, 2024
In 2022, Disha Ray completed her Bachelor's in Honours History at St Stephen's College at the University of Delhi in India. With her sights set on a master's degree, Ray looked at options overseas to find a fit for her next stage of education. Graduating from one of the top schools in India, Ray wanted to continue her education at a high-level institute. After some research, Ray set her standards and set out to find the best university for her. That search led her to UC, where she found what she was looking for. Despite the challenges of moving from India to the United States, Ray thrived in the master’s in history program in the College of Arts and Sciences. During her studies, she authored several peer-reviewed publications, and worked as a graduate assistant—experience that set her up for her acceptance to Princeton University’s doctorate program.
