So far I have had an incredibly welcoming and inclusive experience at Wichita state. I have been involved with the Student Ambassador Society, Student Government Association, fine arts Glee Chorus, Honors student Council, Delta Gamma Sorority, and am the president of the Green Group environmental club on campus. I have gotten to meet many incredible leaders in these organizations, and I have found myself being pushed into uncomfortable growing periods that were necessary to my success. I love the diversity we have here at WSU, and I can always find a helping hand whenever I reach out. There are a multitude of resources available to students, like free tutoring, plenty of quiet study spaces, free admission to sports and fine arts events, and with over 300 organizations, plenty of places to belong! I hope everyone gets the chance to feel so at home in their university as I have at WSU.
Nothing compares to WSU online learning! Their tech department has benefited my education in every way without problems. This experience was flawless! WSU professors are skilled at delivering online formats. I went to a larger school for bachelors that had glitches and profs just complained all of the time without fixes. The online learning at WSU provides a way for busy working people (moms like me) to have a life and get straight As! I love these professors, advisors, and tech dept like family! They have been so supportive, thorough, and worth it! Please go to WSU! You will be Shocked! That means actually graduate and on time!
