catherine

Absolutely anyone.

Hilary

I think an outgoing, fun-loving person should attend WMU, because there are so many residence halls to live in, and if you're not outgoing, then you'll struggle, because the halls are always busy and active with people, parties, and gatherings of the students.

Madeline

I believe someone who is ready to be at a four year university. I started out at a community college, which for me was a great idea. I came from a very small high school, and I think the transition from high school to college when have been much harder if I had gone straight from high school to Western.

The kind of person that should attend this school should be someone that is dedicated to their major or whatever is it that they want to do. They have to be hard working because although, Western Michigan is a fun school, you can easily get caught up in the fun and fall behind. Someone with an open mind about life should attend because college offers a lot of opportunities.

Jared

A person who does not have the money or desire to attend very large universities, wants to participate in research, has decent academic drive and who does enjoy the occasional party. There is also a lot of classes for the arts, but I have not been involved with them.

Erica

People of all ages who may be quenching for a school of diversity, new experiences, and open doors would be perfect for attending WMU.

Ryan

Since this school has a mainly walking campus, a person physically fit should attend. Also, anyone who wants to get an extremely varied and rich education should attend. Someone who does not exactly want to concentrate in one area of knowledge but develop many different areas will like this school. Great school for pilots and those bound for the science field.

Alexander

Well anyone really can attend this school as the requirements for admission are not very difficult. I would like to see more academically serious students attend who strive to learn more than what is required of them. The typical perception of Western is its appeal to the party life. As the administration has attempted to dislodge this perception, it lives on mostly due to its reputation in High Schools. After freshman year, students begin to realize its not as big as a party school as its cracked up to be.

Margaret

Both students who take their studies seriously and those who don't seem to find a way to get along here. There are some people who refuse to even read the assigned material yet there are plenty of resources for those who do intend to work hard and do well during and after their college experience.

Jason

Anyone who is looking for a great experience, and wants something more out of life. Someone who wants to be a leader, and not a follower should attend this school. People who are looking for more one on one with professors, and smaller classrooms.

Julian

Anyone who wants to learn here and can focus on their schoolwork and still have a good social life.

Matthew

A person who likes the large /party school. It is a fun place to be, but most of us take our careers and school seriously. This is not a place for overly conservative people. It is a very liberal and artsy campus. Our arts programs are among the best in the nation, which includes all performing and visual. We also have a very good aviation program. Western is a place for very social people who plan to be involved in their school.

Monica

Those that love fun and a sense of family should attend this school. Its fun and an amazing place to be but the ultimate goal is definitely a degree and a job, not just partying.
