If you're looking for the kind of schoolSuper BrilliantArt & Design Department
If you're looking for the kind of school where you party a lot and study very little...this is for you. If you're a very bright student and can go somewhere else...do it! Or else you'll be interviewing at Columbia in four years and people will be asking you if "James Madison was a community college?"

Question
JMU is amazing.BrightBusiness - Management and Administration
JMU is amazing. Once you have been on the campus and met the people you'll realize that this University pulls in a great student body. Students have manors and hold doors open for each other. People are easy and fun to talk to both in and out of the classroom. Everyone is very friendly and is excited to be going to school at Madison. JMU is a social environment for people who like to work hard and play hard. We are proud of our ability to throw the best parties and have the most beautiful, fun girls in the world. All of your friends at other schools in VA will end up at JMU on the weekend. The James Madison community is full with happy students who work hard at their education and are enjoying life.
