Your Guide To Turning Knowledge Into Action

1. Become Your Best Self

At Willamette, you can do more than meet the future—you can shape it. Unlike schools with caps on certain majors, our liberal arts university offers you the freedom to study what you truly want. Here, you’ll receive an education tailored to your goals, allowing you to explore your interests and reach your full potential, all with the guidance and support of dedicated faculty.

2. Elevate Your Prospects

Earn your undergraduate and graduate degrees faster with our dual degree programs. You will earn your bachelor’s in just three years before pivoting to a graduate program in law, business, computer science, or data science right here at Willamette.

3. Explore the World Around You

Salem is a business, creative, and government center in the Pacific Northwest. With unrivaled natural beauty, rich history, burgeoning start-ups, and industry leaders alike, there is so much to discover and learn in Salem.

4. Connect With Mentors

Forge relationships with professors who will guide you in your education. These connections will open doors to you throughout your career. With distinct undergraduate and graduate programs, you’ll never be taught by teaching assistants throughout your four years.

5. Build Your Community

Enter a collaborative environment where students who are just as driven as you come together to meet common goals. Our vibrant residential community, where you’ll live on campus for your first two years, will help you build friendships that will last a lifetime.

6. Make Your Mark

Make an impact long before graduation. Our 12:1 student to faculty ratio means you will be able to conduct and publish research alongside your professors and our more than 75 student-run organizations will allow you to make a difference in your community.
