Join us for DRE@M,
a Diversity Rich Experience At Madison
Finding a community of people contributes to the success of everyone’s Madison Experience. We want you to find your community at JMU, and it starts with DRE@M, a Diversity Rich Experience at Madison.
DRE@M is a fun, interactive, on-campus event that introduces admitted students and their families to the culturally diverse community that exists at JMU. Attendees will spend time learning about and interacting with JMU students from a wide range of campus organizations.
DRE@M is a supplemental event to CHOICES, JMU's admitted student open house. If you have not already, you can register for CHOICES here. Separate registration for both events is required.
