Taylor
Taylor, Western-Viterbo Transfer Student

I’m surprised by how much I enjoy all of my business classes. Curiosity and interest in a subject make a big difference in reading and learning. The more business classes I take, the more I enjoy them, from accounting to finance to operations, and more. I’ve learned a great deal and I know Western prepared me well for my Viterbo classes this fall.

The experiences I gained from the accounting program at Western have been nothing but phenomenal. Whether you're looking to begin your accounting career or intend to continue your education through one of Western’s many transfer agreements, Western’s accounting program provides an excellent education at a reasonable price.

Emily, Western-Viterbo Transfer Student

I love being a part of the human services program. The instructors are amazing and really worked with everyone individually. I have learned so much from this program. One of the biggest things I will take with me is that realization that no one is perfect, everyone needs help from time to time, and you are no help to anyone if you cannot help yourself.

Online Learning

Online classes give students the flexibility to take classes anywhere at any time of the day. Western supports our online students with services like advising, counseling, tutoring, technology assistance and more to help our students succeed! Find out how online classes benefit our students, and hear some of their tips for success.

I love online learning because you can do it no matter where you are. I receive weekly infusions due to my autoimmune disease so it is nice that I can do school from the clinic and I don't have to worry about going to campus. I just bring my computer with me. My teachers have been extremely understanding and supportive, which has helped me a lot with this experience.

Reach out and get to know your fellow students and your teachers. Make those connections because you can learn a lot from them. Your teachers can help you and direct you in directions that you maybe wouldn't have considered before or you didn't know how to get into. So I really encourage anyone to get out of their box a little bit and make friends.

I found out that continuing to communicate with others had a direct impact on my success. Emailing my educator, keeping on track with Blackboard, and asking questions has helped me become more successful than before I switched to virtual learning, and even after. I've also developed many new friendships, even in this virtual setting.

Scholarship Recipients

Scholarships make college possible for many students. Because of generous donors, more than 500 scholarships ranging from $150 to $2,500 are available for qualified students through Western Technical College Foundation. Find out how scholarships helped these Western students succeed.

Three years ago, I was living on the streets of La Crosse, sleeping in the woods or in parking ramps. Western opened my eyes to the potential of building a career in which I could help other people with the same challenges I had encountered. Thank you, Western, and thank you to everyone who has stood beside me so I can be where I am today. Your support has changed my life.


Amber

I was raised in a different environment than most. My parents were Amish and have an 8th grade education. I knew if I wanted to attend college, I was going to have to navigate the process and pay for it myself. Thank you for offering scholarships and making my Western experience possible, and for showing that Western truly cares about student success.

I wanted to have the opportunity to advance in my career, to provide a comfortable lifestyle for my son, and show him the importance of a quality education. Western is allowing me to earn that quality education while achieving these goals. Thank you to the donors that made scholarships possible. Your belief in students like me provide a better future for families.
