Colleges

Western Michigan University

U.S. News & World Report’s “America’s Best Colleges 2011” names Western Michigan University (WMU) among the 262 best universities in the nation, and for good cause. Their distinguished programs in the fields of occupational therapy, physician assistant, and speech pathology play a huge role in the reasoning behind the bestowment of this honor. WMU offers a total of 140 undergraduate, 67 masters, one specialist and 29 doctoral programs. Its total student body numbers almost 25,000, while the main campus in Kalamazoo is home to 5,500.

This prestigious research institution recognizes and celebrates a culturally diverse environment, with students hailing from all across the United States as well as approximately 90 foreign countries. Service to society is strongly emphasized in the learning process experienced at WMU, which attests to its being touted as one of the “Best Midwestern Colleges” by Princeton Review.

With STAIR values firmly entrenched at the core of this institution, it is simply a matter of cause and effect that their mission of preparing students “to excel in the knowledge-driven environment of the 21st century” proves itself applicable and actionable. The Kalamazoo campus is conveniently located close to the heart of town, just waiting for you to sign on and “Get Where the World is Going!”
