What should every freshman at your school know before they start?
College will be the best years of your life, but remember it is what you make it. Visit as many schools as you would like. The best thing I did was visit and experience the campus life with students. Be sure to look at all aspects of the college, including academic, social, and economics. College is more than just the money, more than just the academics, and more than just a social experience.
Overall, you can make your college experience whatever you want it to be. Seek out the challenges, get involved in campus activities, and step out of your comfort zone. There will be no other time in your life like this, so make the best of it and live life with no regrets!

What's unique about your campus?
As a non-traditional student, it's important to me to be able to take what I learn in the classroom and apply it to my everyday life. The professors do an excellent job at teaching the materials and relating it to life. It's the best school I've attended since starting my secondary education process.

What do you brag about most when you tell your friends about your school?
I brag most about the beautiful scenery. On the east side of campus is a bluff, with walkways and steps that lead down to Lake Michigan. The lake is so beutiful in the morning and there is a beach for the warm months of the year. The school is also surrounded by wooded areas which are nice to walk through on occasion. The dorms are also connected by tunnels so when it is cold in winter you can avoid getting frost bitten.

What is your overall opinion of this school?
When I was in grade school, I always expected I would go to the University of Washington - it seemed like the best college in the state, but it was still close to home so I wouldn't have to go too far from home right after high school graduation. Now that I am a senior at the UW, I am very glad that I chose this school. Whenever people at the store where I work ask me what school I am attending, I feel proud of my answer. They are always impressed, and many reflect on their fond memories of going there for their degrees.
One thing I love about the University of Washington is how large of a campus it is. It covers a fairly vast area, and is home to a wide array of students. There is much diversity among both my classmate and the professors, and it is always fun to meet the different people, many of whom are from different states or countries. Coming from a small town, the feeling of being part of such a big community is inspiring and is one of the best parts of attending this college. However, the campus is not so large that it is overwhelming. It is quite easy to make friends, and people here are very nice.
I also love how many different classes are offered here, covering a wide range of topics. Though the UW is well-known for its medical programs, it is also one of the best for Communication, one of my two majors. With such a strong academic reputation, I feel that I am getting a quality education that will help me in my career. In addition to academics, the University of Washington also has wonderful study abroad programs (I spent spring quarter in Spain this year), advising, and clubs about almost everything.
The University of Washington is an amazing college, and I am very happy that I have been able to spend four years here to earn my bachelor's degree.

What are the academics like at your school?
I love how classes are organized at the University of Washington. There is a mixture of large classes and small classes, and both offer unique learning experiences that effectively teach the subject. Many classes are big, sometimes up to three or four hundred students. These are taught as lectures, though many professors encourage participation and often know the names of many students. In addition, these large lectures frequently have a "quiz section" class that meets separately, with only fifteen to twenty students per section, to go over the material and offer extra learning opportunites.
Other classes, such as the English course, are generally smaller, with no more than forty students in a class. These are primarily discussion based, and the learning is done in groups and through talking about the ideas being taught. Both kinds of courses lend different qualities to the learning experience, and I find it easy to learn the material in both environments.
The students are generally quite engaged and offer thoughtful and interesting ideas in discussions. They are also helpful when it is time to study, and many people go over the course material in groups outside of class to improve each other's learning. Students put a lot of effort into the courses, but are also willing to help others understand concepts better.
Professors are also very nice and have office hours to help students, and they are generally more than happy to schedule an appointment if their standard times don't work for a student. Overall, the academics at the University of Washington are excellent, with a variety of classes, motivated and helpful students, and professors that want their students to do well.

What is the stereotype of students at your school? Is this stereotype accurate?
Some stereotypes about students who attend UW are that we are all Geeks,Frat boys and Sorority Girls. FALSE, first of all we are not all geeks, haha. I am not going to lie some are, mainly the CSS department (just kidding, they are just really smart). Attending UW definitely requires a lot of dedication because it is not high school and the difference is huge. At UW you are responsible for yourself, this is true for most colleges.
Although the first year is difficult for many the key to a successful college experience in terms of fun and acquiring marketable skills is finding the perfect balance. After working hard it is okay to have a little fun, UW is set in a prime location Seattle has so much to offer whether you are into music, the arts, movies, outdoor adventures and so much more!
Frat boys and Sorority Girls, although we do have a large percent of Greek community here on campus, it is not what you see in the movies, that kind of lifestyle is not conducive to a successful college experience and it is a distraction that you don't need here. Sororities and Frats are not all bad on the other hand they have a lot of advantages for students who want to foster those close relationships with large groups of people and it is wonderful for networking and looking into the future.
BUT you don't have to take my word for all of this you can Browse our website:
http://www.washington.edu
OR stop by the campus for a tour:
"Guided tours are offered Monday through Friday, at 10:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. They leave from Schmitz Hall, 3rd floor lobby, and last 90 minutes.
Guided tours are also offered on Saturdays beginning at 10:30 a.m. and leaving from the statue of George Washington.
Tours are not offered on state holidays or the Saturday following a state holiday (for example, Nov. 12 or 26, 2011).
We ask you to use our online registration site, which also contains a lot of helpful information" (University of Washington Website).
