Advice for Freshman

Get out of your comfort zone daily! Coming to college is about intellectual growth, getting an education, but personal growth is just as important. Take time to explore new thing, go see a play, join an intramural sports team, or just go out of your way to interact with students unlike yourself. You'll discover new interests and become a better person for it.

About Madison

Hey everyone, my name is Madison. I'm from Grand Rapids, MI. I grew up in the Eastown neighborhood for anyone who is familiar with the area. I went to fairly small Catholic high school of about 800 people. I've always been a bit nerdy; I've loved English classes for as long as I can remember. So, when it came time to apply to colleges my options revolved around the quality of the English program any given school could offer me. I choose WMU because not only do they have a stellar English program (all you potential creative writers be sure to check out the Prague Summer Program), they also offer really wonderful professors. I love that by attending WMU, I get big campus perks - like a larger campus population as well as a ton of study and research opportunities - while still enjoying many small college features, like smaller classes sizes and more one-on-one time with professors (who actually know my name!).
