Virginia Wesleyan College Top Questions

My school is unique because it is made up of mostly athletes or greek students. The majority of the students participate on an athletic team thus their is no discrimination about the intelligence of athletes. However, due to the small size of this school, if a person does not belong to either a sports team or greek organization they will find it extremely hard to find their place here. The clique centered aspect of this school has caused numerous tranfers. This school also holds a transfer rate above 50{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} which shows some aspect of this school needs to change.

because of its size, it takes a student with drive to succeed at Wesleyan. Things are handed to you however, the next step all depends on the student and where they want to take their college career.

I found that VWC was the right campus for me. The professors were helpful and concerned about every student; they made time to see and talk to students. The campus is smaller so you can see a friendly face. I attended another 4 year school before this one and when I went to a professor for help in the class for the second time he said, "Why are you here?, why don't you just go to .. where you can be a number" as a young student that made a negative impact. You will not find that at VWC, EVER!

There's such a big emphasis on community here. Everyone staff, proffessors are friendly and the campus is beautiful.

Even though it is located in an urban setting, the school setting does not reflect it. You have a hard time imagining that a simple 5-minute drive yields a bustling shopping center with all the amendities.

It's still a new school.

how small it is.....it would be better if they fixed it up and thought about the students......THERE IS NOTHING TO DO......NO GOOD ACTIVITIES AND ITS NOT A GOOD COLLEGE EXPERIENCE.....MANY OF THE PEOPLE THAT CAME LAST YEAR TRANSFERED BECUASE THEY HATED THE SCHOOL......IF THINGS DONT CHANGE IT SHOULD BE SHUT DOWN
