Why I Chose Wright State

I decided to attend Wright State for several reasons. I had heard from several people that Wright State was over all a good school and that they received a good education from the university. I got the impression that the teachers enjoyed working at Wright State and that they did there best to help the students succeed.
I also live only about twenty minutes away from Wright State, so I’m able to live at home, which saves me a lot of money. I also really like living at home, because my parents are pretty awesome. I enjoy the commute from my house and by living at home I’m able to stay in contact with a lot of my friends and members of my church. I like living in Xenia and the ability to go to a good school and stay home was appealing to me. Another reason I chose to attend Wright State was that when I took a tour of the campus, everyone was very friendly and helpful. It seemed that everyone who works at Wright State enjoys it. I also found out that several of the faculty and staff went to Wright State when they were in college. The financial aid department was also very helpful and helped me get everything set financially. The over all helpful mood is a major reason why I wanted to go to this university.
Wright State is also affordable and that was a big concern of mine. The low tuition combined with the fact that I can live at home made going to Wright State an affordable option for me. I was also able to get a scholarship from the university, which helped a lot.
I picked Wright State because it is good academically, close to home, a fun place to study, and affordable.
