Wright State, Right University

Why did I choose Wright State University?  I can tell you this; I didn’t apply many different places.  The main reason I chose WSU was because it was close enough to home that I could commute and not live on campus.  My junior year of high school, it came to my attention that a college education isn’t cheap in any way.  Going to Wright State would definitely cut down on college debt.  My brother went away to a private college and he stayed in for two years and he has more debt than I would have if I went to graduate school at WSU.  I am happy with my choice of Wright State, its all school in the long run.  I hear that college is the best four years of a person’s life, I don’t see it.  College is just going to class, meeting a minimum amount of people, and making barely any friends.  It’s OK though, I’m paying for education, not all the extra stuff that usually comes with it.  I have gone and visited other friends at their schools and the huge college party scene isn’t what I am about.  Of course I like to get down and have a good time, but the kids at other colleges are obsessed with getting wasted and that is their first priority.  I plan on finishing my whole college education here in Fairborn, Ohio.  Wright State is a great school and I recommend it for anyone who is looking to go to college.  It’s a small campus and easy to navigate, and in the winter you don’t have to walk to class outside!
