Central Washington University Top Questions

Central Washington University is a perfect bridge for eastern and western washington. It's large enough for students from the west side to be comfortable yet small enough east side students to be as well. CWU is surrounded by great nature areas good for hiking, camping, rafting, fishing, etc. What I love about Central is that I don't feel pressured to engage in the 'party scene'. There is a large population of students who would rather hike, camp, discuss current events or play music than party.

I have always been in schools in cities. CWU is located in a relatively rural area. Therefore, what's unique to me is that it has got stars in the sky every singe night, which I could rarely see when I was in Taiwan and Japan.

My school is unique in that there is a very dedicated program in the education department. Everyone in the department seems to really care about helping students become the best possible teachers they can be, and helping the future of education. I chose this school almost completely becuase of the quality of the education program, and the resources available to people trying to become teachers.

One thing unique about Central Washington University is that we have a huge teaching college that is part of our actual school, I believe many students who major in education here, come out amazing teachers.

Central Washington University it unique from the other schools I considered because of the amount of eco-friendly choices this institution makes. Some of our newer buildings have been awarded for their environmentally friendly materials and energy saving utilities. You can find assorted recycles bins all over campus to ensure that students have a chance to recycle instead of waste. I found this trait of Central to be the most appealing because I believe that an environmentally sustainable future is the only acceptable future.

The class sizes are smaller so it's easier to stand out in a class and get recommendations from professors. Also, since it's smaller, it's not as intimidating as a bigger school would be, but it still as amazing programs and good classes just like any other university.

It's a great community and enviroment to live in. The campus is beautiful and everyone is very nice and helpful.

The campus is beautiful and centrally located in Washington. It is flat and easy to walk through. Central is small enough where you'll see people you know all the time, but there are opportunities to meet diverse people.

It is a great place if you want to live somewhere where it is not to big but still has all the things necessary to survive. The campus is beautiful all seasons of the year. There are many things to do in the fall, winter, spring or summer like hiking, skiing, river rafting, and many more awesome outdoor activities.

It is by far the most convenient University option around. I can attend University classes in my home town at night, so I can still work full time during the day. Also, all of the classes are taught by professors, not graduate students, it's a unique experience.
