The Wesleyan Experience!
Education can make a huge difference in someone’s life. But how that education is delivered will make the biggest difference of all. At NC Wesleyan University, we promise to deliver a quality education to students that is personal, practical and purpose-driven.
So, why NC Wesleyan? North Carolina Wesleyan University offers a best-in-class value and a personally tailored private higher education experience. We invest in each and every student we accept by providing individualized awards, scholarships and grants. Wesleyan is YOUR hometown University that is Personal. Practical, and Purpose-Driven. Our faculty, staff and administration support the following Core Pillars of Distinction at the university:
Personal.
- One-on-One Mentoring
- Warm, Friendly Community
- Known By Faculty & Staff
- Access to Administration
- Your “Hometown” University
Personal Focus… through mentoring and the connections we provide. Often, this is accomplished through connections with our admissions team in the early part of the recruitment process. Open houses, new student convocation, one-to-one mentoring with faculty and staff, social events, enrichment programs, student clubs, sports teams, and other activities reinforce personal connections. These connections develop more profoundly into the family and community atmosphere that many of our students positively acknowledge. This atmosphere is the number one reason students choose Wesleyan and stay here. So, why NC Wesleyan? Those close connections, research opportunities, and the ability to be active in our community, support our mission, vision, and core values.
