Why I'm at Wright State

Wright State University has an immense amount of history behind it. You can even take a look at the timeline along one of our own underground tunnels between University Hall and the Medical Science building. The Wright Brothers, Stanley Allyn, Robert Oelman, and Dr. Brage Golding all helped pioneer the institution we attend every day. After seeing what Wright State was all about, its past, its majors, its students, and its faculty there was no doubt about my decision. Along with checking Wright State’s background, my mom attending the same university in the late 1970’s and early 1980’s influenced my decision. When I came on my first visit to Wright State, my instructor was extremely helpful on all levels. She explained everything in detail and precise offers of the university. When I decided to major in Marketing, almost a week later I read in the Dayton Daily News that Wright State ranked in the top 300 business schools in the United States. This was the point I was extremely interested in the institution. My living situation was also very important. Rather than relying on Wright State to pair me up with a roommate that I enjoy being with, I’ve had the opportunity to live with five of my friends from back home. Overall, I don’t regret my choice to attend Wright State at all. I’m really lucky I have the chance to pursuit a degree the next four years at a school I enjoy going to.

  1. Same here on the overall ranking! I found out after I was accepted that WSU ranks pretty well in the Computer Engineering department, and was very impressed and glad to be going here!

  2. Wright State is a great school for many careers I am very fortunate that WSU has a great nursing program so close to home! This school does not get enough credit really.
