Hi everyone!

My name is Nicole-Amanda Merchan, or Nicole for short. I was born in Jersey City, NJ, only about 20 minutes from where the SuperBowl is taking place. I moved to New York for high school and now currently reside at the dorms on 97th street. I have only one sibling, a younger brother who turned 2 this past November. While it was nice to be an only child for many years, I absolutely love having a baby brother!

I really look forward to this second semester here at Baruch as I discover what really interests me. I am currently pursuing a major in Math with a possible minor in East Asian Studies. It’s great going to school in NYC, the best city in the world!

I chose Baruch because I wanted to go to school in New York while also having a truly unique education. Baruch is diverse, interesting, and above all, fun! I look forward to the many more experiences I will have here, including studying abroad.

I look forward to having a great class with everyone!
