<p>We live in the Midwest and my D, who is currently a junior is looking at a variety of schools. She is would like to go somewhere out side the Midwest to experience a different part of the country. She has decent stats (3.9 unweighted and 31 ACT) and good EC, however lacks some in the leadership area. It appears she is good enough to run track team at JMU, but is not scholarship material. </p>
<p>She is hoping to majoring in Chemistry or Biochemistry. As for the campus, since she will be venturing far form home, it is important that there are plenty of on-campus types of activities (not drinking) on the weekends. </p>
<p>Just wanted to get some thoughts on the JMU experience for students from other parts of the country.</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
