<p>Is anyone considering applying to Western? I visited and I would much rather go there than UW. My friend is a professor at WSU and he says it is a really good school (better than WSU in his opinion). Just checking if anyone else has heard anything or is planning on going.</p>
<p>If I don't get into my first choice, I'll probably go here. It is a really good school and everyone I know who went there loved it. Plus, it is a pretty campus.</p>
<p>It really depends on what's most important in a school to you. In terms of academics Western is an elite institutution. It is beginning to even rival UW. If you want the experience of a big school with Division I sports competition, then I'd suggest Washington State, Gonzaga or UW. I will be attending Western starting next year to major in East Asian Studies. I'm coming their because Western is the only school in the country that offers Mongolian Studies as a concentration at the undergraduate level.</p>
