I'm a music education major, and I feel my professors could answer any question I have in a way I could understand it and get the most out of their answer. All of my professors, not just in the music department, are very conscientious, professional, but also relatable.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
I love the campus! Everyone is so down to earth and friendly. I loved my first week here- the freshman orientation was amazing! Everyone was really geared to helping the incoming students! Because the campus is so small, everything and everyone feels close-knit. I see people I know all the time walking to class! Classes are small, too. No more than 30 kids, except maybe in the GenEd classes, but I'm sure it wouldn't surpass 50.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Like any UW school, it's pretty reasonable. I only wish the school offered more scholarships.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Tour the campus. A lot of people don't like the secluded country feel of the Whitewater campus, even though I personally love it. Madison and Milwaukee are close by, but not walking distance! Visit the departments you think you will be studying in for your major. Remember: Whitewater is a great school for business, education, and special needs, but that doesn't mean you can only major in those subjects! Like any college, all of the departments have to be strong, so check them out! That's why they have tour days almost every month!
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Anyone who wants to attend an amazing school and experience how great college life is!
