It's a magical place! Sure, it's a small town and there isn't tons to do within walking-distance but the campus offers clubs, parties, dining hall options and if you or a friend can drive, there are tons of places to go! I loved my time at Wheaton, the professors, the inclusive atmosphere and most of all, the people.

It's great all around. Applied to it because my counselor suggested it and I couldn't be happier here.

So many doors will open here for you if you put in the effort. You have so many opportunities to get one on one attention from professors, work alongside professors, and secure fantastic research positions, along with other fantastic work opportunities! Wheaton sets you up for success! I love the community, and most everything else too. Recommend!

I had a wonderful experience at Wheaton. It was almost picture perfect in its quaint New England vibe. The professors gave individual attention and if done correctly, there were great internship and study abroad opportunities that are stellar! The campus feel was friendly and open, liberal, and progressive! it was my 1st choice school!

IDK why ppl rate the food poorly. Has lobster, sushi ,many choices for people with restrictions, different meals rotating + constant made to order omelet bar, burrito, etc. Norton doesn't offer a ton. I found that ppl that didnt like wheaton were usually ppl who just went in with a mad attitude, everyone who put in a modicum of effort had fun

Wheaton has a great reputation, I don't know why. The town of Norton has nothing to it and the school itself is a depressing campus.
