In 1882, the Benjamin P. Cheney Academy opened its doors to more than 200 enrolling students. A generous contribution of $10,000 from Benjamin P. Cheney, a wealthy transportation industrialist, had at last fulfilled the dreams of Cheney citizens who had long desired an institute for higher learning in their community.

Eastern's 300-acre parklike campus is just 17 miles from Washington's second largest city, Spokane. However, it is a matter of minutes from more than 20 lakes, beautiful mountains and the Turnbull National Wildlife refuge; all of which offer fishing, hiking, biking, boating, wildlife watching and more. This unique geographic positioning allows students the serenity to focus on their studies, the spirit of a small college town, the recreational opportunities of the Northwest and the invaluable internship opportunities and civic involvement offered by a major metropolitan area. It's no wonder more than 10,000 students (and counting) now make Eastern their home away from home.

Ewha is full of people with passion and curiosity. Just being in that community allows you to feel the need to learn and progress. By cooperating and competing against the fellow students, I could learn so much more than I expected I would as a university student.
I�m a 3rd-year student at East West University, and honestly, campus life is pretty good. The environment is clean and modern, and classes are held in well-equipped rooms. We�ve got a big library, decent Wi-Fi, and a chilled-out cafeteria where we usually hang out. There are lots of clubs too. I am involved in some, and they organize fun events, seminars, and cultural programs throughout the year. It�s a good mix of study and social life. The vibe is friendly, and I�ve made some really great friends here.
EHU is an okay university located in Vilnius. If you prefer you studies to be not extensive and you love to have a lot of you own time, you wont regret entering it. Here you have enough of opportunities, a couple of very good professors, nice vibe and beautiful students.
