I had an amazing experience at Nebraska Wesleyan! Professors know you personally, you are not just a number! They have an excellent Career Center to do mock interviews with and they will help you with your resume.

Great campus. Distinguished Wesleyan reputation. College town. Located near UNL. So big city perks with small private university academics.

The Professors really get to know you as people and you have help every step of the way. I found a job right out of school, and Wesleyan will always be my home away from home.

About to graduate, I really enjoy the school here. It is somewhat cliquey and I am a transfer student. However, all of the faculty and students have been friendly and helpful and after starting at the larger university in town, I am forever grateful to have transferred.

NWU- the high school after high school.

I found this schools educational quality to be lower than that of most community schools - at about 4 or 5 times the cost. Some departments don't deserve this because they are fantastic - BUT that is like finding a diamond in the ruff...keep looking
