Wright State University was the last application I filled out, simply because I was dead set on attending Miami University with my best friend. My plans completely changed the night my deposit was due to Miami; something just didn't feel right. It was a little late to put down a deposit on the other schools I had applied to so I decided to go to Wright State for a year to see how I liked it, and if all else failed I was perfectly fine with transferring for my sophomore year. The things that became appealing to me about the campus and the University were all things that would have drawn me to the college had I done the research that I completed for the other colleges that had accepted me.
I began recruitment in the fall for Kappa Delta, as I had always been interested in joining a sorority. This has been one of my best decisions in college. Coming from a small town, and trying to adapt to this huge campus was a major change for me, one that I wasn't sure was possible. It was like starting over and it was hard enough worrying about school, but now I had to try and make friends as well. It was so nice to find these girls with which I had so much in common. They took me in as their sister and it has been a blessing ever since. I also love the size of the classes and how comfortable I seem to be in a lecture setting, while still having some classes with very few. The campus is very nice and feels safe to me, something I was very concerned about at first. I love many things about Wright State, but mostly I love the effort that I have seen from every one of my professors to do their absolute best to pass every student. Them giving so much time and energy into making the courses possible means a lot to me and I am grateful to have the opportunity to work with each of them.
As my freshman year continued at Wright State, things began to fall together and soon I decided this was the college for me and I couldn't imagine myself anywhere else. I guess to say the least, I didn't choose Wright State from the beginning, but all the opportunities it has proven to have for me the past three quarters make me extremely happy that I did end up choosing this University.
