Several Dominican students have received notable awards from the Midwestern

both Alpha Chi and Mortar Board senior honor societies. Clide Cadette, Shanell

According to the release, Midwestern State University has also been recognized
as number one in Consumer’s Digest Best Values in Public Colleges and
Universities. The magazine lists the top 100 best values based on attributes
that validate or define the institutions’ academic prowess factored against
annual cost of tuition and room-and-board. The university, which currently hosts
over 250 Caribbean students and have recruited over 800 in the past thirteen
years, was chosen from approximately 3,800 U.S. schools.
Twenty new Dominican students have also been awarded tuition assistance
packages and scholarships to attend Midwestern State University starting in
