 " The Professors here at JMU truly care for all of their students. They will go out of their way to help you (even with things not related to class). The business program taught me a lot and prepared my for the real world. The overall energy of the school was positive and everyone wants to see you succeed. "

 " I love JMU! It is a great college that valued students and their individuality. The school has a community feel to it. I attended both undergrad and grad school at JMU. Undergrad on campus and grad school online. Both experiences were amazing. The professors at JMU really care about their students and the students successes! I can't recommend JMU enough! I am forever a Duke who bleeds purple! "

 " 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. "
