I like to tell my friends that James Madison University was a perfect size, not too big or too small with an engaging faculty and very malleable social networking opportunities. Students there are so proud that they are a JMU student and they won't be afraid to let you know it at campus events.

What I brag about most about JMU is the wonderful facilites we have on campus. Our state of the art gym facility is phemonenal and UREC offers so many programs to keep one healthy and stress free. The new CISAT library is beautiful and is open 24 hrs- it is filled with windows and study rooms and is not your typical dark cave. Dining on campus is awesome and filled with so many choices from fancy Madison Grill to to pick up and go at Top Dog Cafe. JMU has something for everyone.

Everyone is very nice here. We are known for the parties that anyone's invited to (with free beer), and welcome everyone to simply have a great time. It's in a beautiful area in Virginia, only two hours away from D.C. We pride ourselves in showing people here to great weekends and good times when they visit.

How fun it is on the weekends, and how beautiful the campus is.

Daniella

I tell them about how many great people I have met and how everyone has made me feel so welcome. I tell them about how beautiful our campus is and the area surrounding it. On the weekends, there are nice parties but if you aren't into that kind of stuff there is always plenty more things for you to do!

The social life and the faculty are what I brag about most. There is always something to do from attending sports events to just hanging out with friends. Even when it seems that nothing is going on, on campus organizations are hosting events all around campus. In addition, the faculty are flexibe, considerate, and open-minded. They are always open to new ideas and are considerate when problems arise with class work.
