Student Life

Your Community. Founded Here.

When you arrive at W&J, you become part of a talented and engaging student body that is recognized for its abilities, dedication and integrity. W&J offers exceptional opportunities to participate in activities outside of the classroom that all add value to your education and experience inside the classroom. You will have access to mentors, advisors, peer counselors and success consultants that will help you navigate your time on campus.

Living at W&J College

From our First Year Residence Halls to Residential Learning Communities, you'll find a place to call home. You'll join a safe and supportive community for sharing meals and making memories.

Thriving the First Year

All four years at W&J College are fun, but your first year is special. Meet your first roommates. Connect with your alumni mentor (who will send you cookies on your first day!). Find your tribe. Your first year is the beginning of belonging to a strong, lifelong community.

Finding Yourself at W&J College

Maybe you know your goal is medical school. Or maybe you're not sure yet where you're headed. Both paths are possible at W&J College. Here, you'll discover limitless connections. You might uncover connections between cuisine and communication that will make you a better cook and a better doctor, or unearth a passion for wildlife conservation through one of the student clubs.

My favorite professor is Dr. Weixel for endless reasons. In the classroom, she is a phenomenal teacher with her creativity, humor, and care for her students, even in the most difficult courses.

What was your favorite moment with a faculty or staff member?

While I was studying abroad in Munich, Germany, I remember going out to eat with one of my professors who was in Munich for a business trip. The restaurant had one of those historical backgrounds on the menu, and I read it with ease… [and] We both started laughing about…how far I had gotten in learning the language without even realizing it.
