I think Mason encourages students of various backgrounds, cultures, beliefs , and goals. Because of this, Mason is a growing experience and is perfect for almost any kind of student- but most specifically those looking for growth and new experiences while attaining a diverse education.

Mary

Someone who is looking for diversity and is comfortable with the the campus. If you are unsure of what you want to be when you "grow up" this is a good place to come and dabble because it offers classes in just about everything.

Matthew

A person attending GMU as an undergraduate should wish to study business, economics, criminal justice, policitical science, or english. If they are low on money but too intelligent for a community college, GMU offers great value for the education it delivers. The person must be outgoing and have initiative to take advantage of all GMU has to offer. Otherwise they will be bored and friendless. Its proximity to Washington, DC, Greek life, volunteer opportunities, ROTC program, student groups based on religion, major, or interests all offer a plethora of opportunities.

Maria

Someone who likes being near a city but not right in the middle of it. This school is good for people who value diversity and who enjoy a variety of different activities, clubs, classes, views, and other aspects of life. This school is good for those who like to party but also for those who don't. It is academically challenging but school does not take over your life here. It's a great school.

Bethany

Mason has excellent undergraduate and graduate programs. The mojority of students, however, are ages 17-26, and come from all over the United States and the world. We have one of the most diverse campuses with one of the largest Muslim populations in the U.S. There are several English, Science, Business, Government, and Arts majors. People who go to Mason enjoy being involved in campus activites, being social, and are people who are dedicated to learning. While many students still commute to Mason, the school is making progress to end this reputation and change the housing recquirements for freshmen.
