I chose GSW because it is a beautiful campus year-round. I stayed at GSW because the people here have become family. I am not afraid to ask for help, and I know that I can succeed here as a student.

What advice do you have for incoming students?
Your freshman year is your foundation to the rest of your college experience. It is okay to have fun, but make sure that you put your education first.

My favorite class would be my major course because it is a reassurance that I chose the right major for me.

What have you learned from other GSW students?
I have learned that the stars are truly the limit. If you want something, there is nothing truly stopping you besides yourself.
