Aleah Applin

Aleah is a senior strategic management major from Wimauma, Florida, with a supplemental major in Theology and a Minor in Sports, Media, and Culture (SMAC). Aleah lives in Pasquerilla West Hall, and her favorite hall tradition is Queen Week, a head-to-head competition in which each section nominates a first-year "princess" and competes for points all week; the section with the most points at the end crowns its princess queen.

Aleah says faith guided her path to Notre Dame. "From the beginning of my senior year, I prayed that God would make it very clear where I was supposed to go to college. The first and only time I ever visited Notre Dame was two weeks before decision day, and before the plane landed, I had a feeling that God was calling me here, and He most certainly was," Aleah says. "Aside from making Jesus my Lord and Savior, Notre Dame was the best decision I've made in life."

On-campus, Aleah is a Resident Assistant in Pasquerilla West Hall, President of the Class of 2027, and a member of the Harmonia a cappella group and Iron Sharpens Iron. Aleah also spent three weeks studying abroad in Uganda the summer after Sophomore year.
