Review of University of Mary Washington

from fredericksburg, va

Describe your college in three sentences.

the university of mary washington was my #1 college when i was in high school because i remembered how beautiful and welcoming the campus felt when i went on a student lead tour years before. i am starting my sophomore year in the fall and could not be any happier about my decision of umw. the students and faculty are always so warm and welcoming here and the "homey" feeling you will get while walking down college walk is unbeatable.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

joining a club, cheering on the eagles at a sports event, and partaking in one of the almost daily events on campus are great ways to enjoy all that umw has to offer.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

i do not live on campus considering how close i live to the university but all of my friends loved their dorms, especially the new eagle landing.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

there are so many dinning options on campus and if you cannot find something that will hit the spot, there are tons of other options nearby with downtown fredericksburg being just a short walk away and central park being a short bus ride away.

What’s there to do for fun at your college?

the university always has fun events on campus including $1 movie showings, game nights, or performances. being so close to downtown fredericksburg is also a big plus for the students because there are always things to do downtown whether it be window shopping, enjoying the hiking/waling trials by the river, or one of the numerous festivals held there many times a year.
