Welcome from the Director
On behalf of Western Michigan University College Assistance Migrant Program (WMU CAMP), we would like to welcome you to the University and our program! We are excited to have you as a prospective student and know you will find a great place to thrive here. Our goal is to support you and your family as you transition into college and throughout your first year.
We know first-hand of the challenges you might encounter because most of us were once a migrant and first-generation college student who took the opportunity of attending college as part of CAMP. We did not go to and through college alone. We had a community of family, friends, teachers, mentors, and programs guiding us along the way. As such, we here at WMU CAMP are committed to your academic success.
Our CAMP team is here to advocate, support, and empower you through your journey. Please take advantage of our services! We are happy to chat with you or answer any questions to assist in your decision-making process. Also, be sure to browse our website and join our closed Facebook group once admitted to keep up with upcoming deadlines and information. We hope to have the honor of working with you in the near future!
