Western is a top choice institution for students mainly from western washington who think that UW is too big/dont want to live in Seattle and WSU is too isolated. WWU's campus is long and narrow and is situated between two forested hills and has spectacular views over Bellingham Bay towards the northern end of campus. If you're looking for a big Greek scene/division 1 athletics, its not the school for you.
Faculty Accessibility: A+, Education Quality: A

Not so bright
Didn't get into UW, but consider yourself too good for the other state schools in Washington? Welcome to Bellingham.

I'll keep it short and sweet; 3/4 of the students are regular weed smokers, campus is very liberal, hipster kids from Seattle suburbs abound, small class sizes, B-ham's a pretty cool place (especially if you're an outdoorsy person), greek system is essentially replaced with sports houses, dorms are nice, and students tend to be just average.If you're hardcore and want to go to a very serious place of higher learning where you can honestly tell yourself "I'm surrounded by people at least as smart as me", go to UW.
Campus Aesthetics: A, Extracurricular Activities: C+

Quite Bright
Western's student body takes a pro-active approach to their lives. There is ample opportunity to engage in events on and off of campus. The university, in particular, the human service's program, encourages diversity, involvement, creativity, and critical thinking. The city of Bellingham is surrounded by mountains, bays, and lakes, and the university has lovely antique buildings, ancient trees and beautiful sculpture.
Useful Schoolwork: A+, Campus Maintenance: B
