James Madison University

JMU is a great school. The motto of "all together one" covers it well. Its very much a community, and yet you still maintain your independence. Harrisonburg is called the friendly city for a reason. Sure its not the most happenind city in thw world but it has things going. And if you want to pary you can always find a party, but if thats not your thing then there is always someone else who feels the same way. I urge everyone to look into this GREAT school! GO DUKES!

1st Year Female -- Class 2005

Education Quality: A+, Faculty Accessibility: F

Be advised that James Madison is in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains (i.e. in the middle of nowhere). If you can accept the location, Madison will prove a valuable and enjoyable experience. The academic reputation of JMU is well-recognized- I now attend a top-notch law school on the strength of my Madison degree- and the instructors are always available and devoted to undergraduate education (not their own research or graduate students.) Great study abroad options, nice campus, and fantastic tuition make Madison a good choice. Consider JMU.

4th Year Male -- Class 2000

Faculty Accessibility: A+, Social Life: C+

JMU is a great place to go to school. Not too big, not too small. The only really bad thing about being here is the Harrisonburg community, it's a boring place and the people are not that friendly, but JMU students make up for it. The social scene around the school itself makes up for that though.
