This college has offered my so many opportunities in education that I wouldn't find in many other places. The people here will give me connections to communities that will help me get a job out of college. The Triad program gives me plenty of work experience and volunteer experience.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Apply for as many scholarships as possible and get into as much service as possible. Also get into extracurricular activities and stay on top of your classes. I would also suggest taking classes you are good at already to start out.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
The focus on academics here is very intense but is very much up to the student to make it what they want. The teachers are very willing to help and friendly when approached.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
The students here are all very friendly and living with them is very enjoyable. The bathrooms and halls are pretty dirty but not unbearable. They could incorporate more social activities into the lving situation but other than that all is good.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
The food here is not bad. There is a very large variety and the cafeteria offers vegan, vegetarian, gluten free and other options.The kitchens and dining areas are very clean and the staff are always working.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
The outdoors around Warren Wilson are beautiful. Usually I spend my free time outdoors camping hiking, biking or just hanging out around a fire. There are plenty of performances put on by the school so music and theater are always an option as well.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
Dogwood has got to be the most traditional place on campus. It is a beautiful, open field that they use to pasture cows, it overlooks all of Swannanoa and you can see the sunset perfectly most nights. There are plenty of places to cam and a collection of fire pits.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Outdoor fanatics would be at home here; greenthumbs would have a place to garden; manual laborers would have plenty of work to preoccupy themselves with; there is an incredible arts program; the science department is extensive and full of knowledgeable teachers.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
There are lots of clubs to partake in. From outdoor recreation based clubs, to self defense, to yoga, to acrobatics, to music groups, to sports and study abroad trips.

How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
Campus here is very safe. We are removed from most suburban areas so we don't have to worry about anyone that isn't part of our campus. Our officers are very friendly and only intervene when they need to. I feel safe here and am treated well.
