All-in-all west Chester university is everything I wanted in a college life. Otherwise be prepared to walk up to two miles everyday just to get to campus. If you, like me, commute to school then parking permits are a must. This provides a giant meeting hub on the street where students can get food and socialize before classes. All of the buildings can be accessed on one street either through walkways or direct access. This is because the school focuses very hard on providing an appealing look to their students.
The thing I enjoy the most about my school is the scenery and the environment. Most of the classes all take place within walking distance of each other which is very convenient. West Chester is a very nice and quiet school to attend. All without getting caught up in the city life. "My school has a fantastic opportunity for new students, and returning students to excel in their fields of study.

I completed a Bachelor's in History, without the intent to become either a teacher or historian. They'll let you fall through the cracks and not bat an eye, so long as you pay them for the privilege.
