REVIEWS
Read What Students Are SayingThe professors here are very understanding and treat you like another human being. They treat you like an adult and are very easy to get along. They are willing to meet with you and assist you in any way possible. They get you hand on experience. It's not all about being in class learning. A lot of my classes that I am taking now I have been placed on a real experience.
Paige from Bloomingburg, OH
Wilmington has very challenging courses. I have learned a lot from the Professors many of whom teach you to use ably that knowledge in the real world. You begin learning about your major your first semester. I like being on semesters.
Catlin from Waverly, OH
The small class/lab sizes make it easy to get to know your fellow classmates and professors. Most professors are great and all of them are willing to help if you ask.
Sarah from Troy, OH
The classes are small and the professors are always willing to give extra time in or out of the classroom to help you understand. The hands on labs are superb at helping students fully understand the class materials.
