The Wheaton Edge
Wheaton guarantees that every student will have access to funding for an internship, research position or other experiential learning opportunity before their senior year. That focus on real-world learning is the centerpiece of a Wheaton education, along with personalized support, a rigorous, interdisciplinary liberal arts curriculum, and a vibrant residential campus.
