University of WI, Eau Claire is a beautiful campus, with a well-organized system!
The professors care about their students and it is evident. The online portals are easy to use. The orientation went well because the upperclassmen led the way and gave their utmost expertise and effort. Everything has gone smoothly in transitioning from high school to college. On check-in day, carts were available to load up belongings, and residence hall staff/students were helpful and professional.
The campus feels safe, clean, and well-maintained. All buildings are clean and maintained nicely. I am glad that I chose this university and proud of my choice. My goal is to become a nurse, and this university has a wonderful nursing program. I know that I will get the best education for my money.
Before I even became a student here, the college provided professors and student teaching assistants to coach me for an entrance math exam. This exam helps to place students in the appropriate class.

I absolutely love Eau Claire. Not only is it an outstanding College filled with endless opportunities and supporting faculty, but the city in general is so breathtaking. I feel so at home here on the campus. I have made so many interesting and supportive friends while here and am being taught by helpful and unique professors. I also work as an Office Assistant with the Art and Design Department, where I get to know the faculty personally and help improve the department. I am studying Graphic Design as my major, and I gotten a great amount of help from my advisor to help me stear in the right direction for my future career. I am also currently in the Blugold Marching Band with over 450 engaging students. I feel like my section group is my family, always looking out for each other and checking up to see how we are doing. There is no other place I would then in UW-Eau Claire!
I love attending UWEC. Being a student athlete can make a lot of things difficult in college, but thanks to my amazing Professors everything goes as smooth as it can. Everyone is so friendly around campus and the view is beautiful! You meet so many new people everywhere around campus. The food on campus definitely has its ups and downs but Einstein bagels is my favorite place to eat on campus and to catch up on homework. Over all this campus is amazing and attending UWEC has been one of the best decisions of my life. Go Blugolds!
