Applying for colleges is an exciting step in your journey. Wesleyan's office of enrollment is eager to help make this process as simple as possible. Don't hesitate to reach out to your admission counselor at any time. To be considered for admission as a first year student, we must have the following: completed application for admission and a submitted official high school transcript. No standardized test scores are required.
Regularly ranked as one of America’s best value private colleges, Wesleyan’s tuition is one of the most affordable in the Southeast. 99% of our undergraduate students receive financial aid. Plus, there is no tuition increase for out-of-state students. Our average financial aid award, including scholarships, grants, and loans, makes the cost of attendance lower than many public schools. Students may be eligible for merit, leadership, and fine arts awards based on their GPA, test scores, and auditions or art portfolio presentations. This commitment to creating financial access for students has enabled Wesleyan to attract an extremely talented and diverse student body. Most traditional undergraduate students live on campus, which is one of the primary benefits of the distinctive Wesleyan experience. Residence hall living provides a healthy environment for you to grow socially and intellectually. As members of the USA South Athletic Conference, Wesleyan is home to six NCAA Division III sports: basketball, cross country, soccer, softball, track, and volleyball. Wesleyan Wolves regularly win All-Conference and All-Academic honors. Plus, our award-winning equestrian team competes in the IHSA in both hunt seat and western. Students may board their horses at our updated stables located right on campus just a short walk from residence halls. Wesleyan also has a club Cheerleading/Dance team.
The best way to know if a college is the right fit for you is to visit the campus. Visitors will receive admission and financial aid information, take a guided tour of campus, sit in on a class, meet our students and faculty, and get a feel of life at Wesleyan. Auditions and portfolio reviews may be scheduled for an individual campus visit or special visitation. Wesleyan now offers virtual visits as well. Visit with admissions staff and see a virtual tour from the comfort of your own home!
