But don't just take it from us...
Emily Archer, Class of 2022
"The best part about enrolling in UWW is by far the ability to work at your own pace. As someone who was previously enrolled at UMass Amherst as a campus student, it was difficult to work full-time to support myself and attend regularly scheduled classes. With UWW, professors understand that most students have previous commitments, so they are more compassionate and flexible with scheduling assignments."
Kevin Hill, Class of 2022
"My one regret was not finishing my undergraduate degree. I could never find the right fit in an institution. I wanted someplace that I could call home, and I found that in the UWW Interdisciplinary Studies program. As I was contemplating my life when the COVID pandemic began... I decided that this was the perfect time to apply and finally finish... it was the reset that I needed to complete my degree and work on myself as a person."
Brittany Collins, Class of 2019
"I most appreciated the sense of community that UWW staff and faculty are able to cultivate within a remote educational environment. Coming from a private liberal arts college where student-teacher ratios were small, I was concerned that online education wouldn't lend the same personal elements—but I was so wrong! UWW empowered me to embrace and share my story with others, and to consider remote education through the lens of accessibility."
Eileen Vazquez, Current UWW Student
"For many years... life's struggles got in the way, and unfortunately higher education took the backseat every time... Being a UWW Interdisciplinary Studies Student is amazing, because I actually feel like I have found a college that not only understands how hard life can be, but makes a way for the same things to help move you further by utilizing life experiences in addition to regular studies."
Theresa M. Sanders, Class of 2024
"They're very understanding that we're living life on life terms, so they handle you with care. What more do you need in order to achieve your dreams? Someone who is actually going to genuinely want to see you succeed, and do whatever they can to help you get there."
