Review of Illinois Wesleyan University

from Elmhurst, IL

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

I have had the fortune of already having some wonderful professors that I have learned so much from. Also, I have learned from fellow students through group and in-class work. Not only have I grown academically, but the college experience at IWU in general has helped me to learn about life.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

I have met some amazing people here that I know I will have in my life even after we graduate. There are so many opportunites to get involved in clubs, sports, Greek life, musical ensembles etc. IWU campus life makes it easy to meet new people and experience new things. The weekends are never boring, even if that means just hanging in a friend's dorm and watching a movie.

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

Illinois Wesleyan is expensive, but the quality of the education you will receive is worth the price of tuition. There are some wonderful professors here that you will be glad you were able to have class with. Not only that, but having the Illinois Wesleyan University name follow you into the job market will be extemely benefical.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Illinois Wesleyan wants well rounded students in their university, so try to diversify your interests and activities. If you haven't had much diversity or life experience, admit to it, but say that is what you are looking for in your college experience.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

IWU is for those students who care about getting a quality education and enjoy learning, and prefer smaller class sizes with more opportunity for one on one instruction. Also, if you want a great community feeling with ample opportunity to get involved in campus life and activities, IWU is perfect.
