Wabash College is a small, liberal arts college for males in Crawfordsville Indiana that pushes young men to go beyond the minimum of what is asked of a college student. Wabash provides numerous opportunities for their students to get involved and get ahead through volunteering opportunities, externships, internships, immersion trips (paid for by the school), study abroad (paid for by the school), and a network of alumns who will all help any Wabash man in any way they can. Going to Wabash isn't a 4 year decision, it is a life time of being apart of unique group of men who work together to think critically, act responsibly, lead effectively, and live humanely.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Visit the campus. I truly didn't know how great Wabash was until I met with students, professors, alums, and coaches.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
Wabash is tough! I have been thoroughly challenged here, and I was forced to learn how to study well and regularly. There is no easy road here, but at Wabash we embrace challenges and always push each other to the limit to grow.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
Wabash is a small school; consequently, students often form close bonds with their dormmates. Students are allowed to choice their dorm, room, and dormmates, so this adds to the friendships made throughout the years.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
Food at Wabash is good, not great. There are some good healthy options at the cafeteria, but the options are limited and repeated often. I would say our food is better than average, but certainly not gourmet.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
Because Wabash is such a close and small community, we often all support each other's sporting events. Over half of our student body are student-athletes. We also have plays, concerts, Oktoberfest, homecoming, and many other events throughout the semester that are attended by the majority of the student body.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
This school will change your life because Wabash goes beyond what a normal school would do. You will develop real, relationships with your professors who actually care about you. I have been over to multiple of my professor's houses for dinner with my classmates, just to spend some time together. I have had professors come in on weekends to meet with me to review class material. I have had Wabash alums set me up with their practice to do internships (orthopedic surgeon). Wabash will help you achieve success in whatever field you are looking for.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
Wabash is all male. Wabash plays DePauw University in football every year since 1890, making it the oldest rivalry in football.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Hard working, motivated, and want to push themselves to the limit!
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
Clubs at Wabash are important because often they serve as a launch point for students interested in a particular field to go deeper. For example, pre-health society often offers information and connections to multiple physicians, hospitals, internships, alums in medicine, etc. This is true for many of our clubs, but also we have many clubs just for fun like cigar and pipe club. Wabash is very open to new clubs, and the process to create one is easy!
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
Greek life at Wabash is big! Half of our students here are Greek, but our Greek system is unique because all the Greeks and independents are very united. The Greek life at Wabash is very unique in how it interacts with the rest of campus.
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
Wabash has no issues with safety. We are in a rural community, and the community and Wabash have great relations. Wabash students even get discounts to all of the local stores!
