Admissions

Apply for the scholarship affiliated with the school even if you think you are not able to get one. Visit Campus and got to the first orientation it will be two days of fun.

Don't waste your time or the institutions. If you truly want to learn then pursue it but if not find a trade or just stay home!!!

A tour of the campus is essential for anyone on the fence about the school. If you don't feel at home after the relaxing nature walk and with the small town community feel around the campus then the college isn't for you.

Make friends and strike some life-long relationships. It makes life in college a lot more easier. Also, it helps to be self-motivated and to choose the right groups to study with. Give the school a chance, try to explore all the activities that go on on campus and try to refrain from going home every weekend. You are being introduced to just a pinch of the real world and it could really benefit in the long run in developing your own independence.

- Go to class.
- Have a little fun, but not too much.
- There are always events going on, on campus. Go out and be social.
- Classes run at moderate pace. There's not too much stress when it comes to the flow of class work.
- Chicken Wednesday is the best day to go the Caf.

I recommend living on campus and being involved in many organizations around campus. This gives you the opportunity to have a great college experience.

Don't ever get behind in your studies. Always ask for help early if you need it.

Be ready to write! Be ready to follow a set schedule so that you do not fall behind.

To any student who plans to attend The University of West Alabama, I suggest buying your groceries in your hometown because groceries are expensive there. Also, there aren't many places around (stores, malls, doctors, dentist, etc.), so I would suggest investing in a car before attending the school.
