" Love JMU!! Would definitely recommend to anyone that JMU is a great school academically, socially and for jobs!!

" Really enjoyed my experience and would definitely recommend it. I had a great opportunity with my study abroad program. The food was great, but parking can be a nightmare. The village was tough in the summer - lack of AC "

" Strong sense of community
High academic standards
Like most things, you get out of it what you put into it. There is something here for everybody and the student body is extremely diverse in background and in terms of peoples' interests and skills. "

" Well, It is certainly a college, nothing spectacular about it, it is as average and normal of a college I can think of. Nothing special, but that is just me. I guess with the school of education all of it was just kind of annoying, like there was a growing sentiment of what is the point for a lot of classes. Math was understandable, but somehow I got through it. "

" I loved attending JMU. I think the SMAD program is exceptional and this is why I attended. If you are interested in design or media, in general, this is the university for you in the VA area. (Also, JMU has the best on-campus food by far. There's a plethora of options.) "
