[quote=Anonymous]My kid is a freshman and absolutely loves JMU. She was top 15% of her large HS, 4.7 GPA and entered JMU with sophomore standing thanks to AP and DE credits. She likely would have had a good chance of acceptance at UVA/W&M, but they were not her vibe. She didn't like VT. She loves the genuine, down to earth friendly vibe at JMU. She's made wonderful friends, joined a sorority and several clubs and has excellent grades heading into finals. She has found that in her intro classes she's definitely above the average academically speaking, but thats been a good thing. She's still challenged, but finding lots of success. It's not an academic grind, and that type of environment wouldn't have been a good fit. She has just as many close friends from OOS as from VA. The food is great, campus is beautiful, people are super friendly, there is SO much to easily get involved with and the party scene has been a lot of fun for her too. In all, it's been the perfect fit for her so far and I'm very happy with JMU as a parent.[/quote]
