Recommended: Transition from high school to university
I am originally from Tuscaloosa, Alabama where I attended Tuscaloosa County high school. Most of my high school career was spent playing golf so it was the chief decider when I was picking my first college. I did not come to UWA right away, I took the long way to get there, after transferring several times I found myself at UWA after my sophomore year. Coming to UWA was by far the best decision I have ever made, it allowed me to explore multiple opportunities academically, get involved with organizations on and off campus, and allow me to see what it means to be me! While at UWA I found my calling in the form of a degree called Integrated Marketing Communications, this decision did not come quickly though as it was my 5th and final declared
major! IMC gave me the ability and confidence to go out and make a name for myself at UWA. I played golf on the UWA men’s golf team, was president of the American Marketing Association, and hosted a charity Wine Tasting bringing together various faculty and alumni to raise money to renovate the University! Coming to UWA truly changed my life! Favorite Place on Campus: My favorite place on campus is the TV production lab in Wallace hall. I spent so much time in that room and building and it is one of the most special places to me! Favorite UWA Tradition Homecoming week is by far my favorite UWA tradition, it perfectly merges everything I love about the University into one awesome week. What do you love most about UWA The fact that as a student you are allowed to be involved with the university to the level that you are. Its hard to be as involved with the day to day happenings of a major institution like you are at UWA. It makes you feel like you truly matter to everyone at the school. Piece of advice for prospective students Have Fun! College is supposed to be the most memorable and enjoyable times of your life. You will grow more academically and socially in college than you will at any other time! Have an open mind and a good balance of Academics and Social life. Let UWA show you who “You” really are!
