I really enjoyed my four years at the College of Wooster. Specifically, the professors have truly made a difference in my experience. Nowhere else can you build as strong of a bond with your professors at Wooster. They are not only friendly and helpful, but they put you first in every way possible. With roughly 130 student organizations to become a part of, coursework is not the only time commitment at Wooster. Wooster students truly build a community that orchestrates a seamless transition into the college experience. After considering academics, extracurriculars and campus community, Wooster perfectly sets students up for life after ungrad!
I am a first generation low-income student at the College of Wooster. I applied to Wooster thinking that I would never be able to afford it. I am now a senior. The only reason I am here is because of the generous financial aid I have received that covers almost all of tuition/room and board. The college really cares about low income students and gives us so much financial support on campus. I even received an extra $1000 due to the COVID19 pandemic. I can’t emphasize enough about all the help I have received from this college. I truly feel like the college cares about me and wants me to be able to keep attending. For those of you who feel like you can’t afford to go here, you should definitely apply! If your income is less than $40k you can basically go here for free! It is truly amazing! My loan debt is very, very low compared to other people I know. I hope Wooster keeps supporting those who cannot afford college!
I have had an amazing four years at the College of Wooster! I graduated from high school in Vietnam, and never could have guessed I would end up in Wooster but am very thankful I did. I am a senior double majoring in Economics and Education(including license)! I have loved the community of close friends I have built here and all of the different activities I have been able to participate in from Intramural Volleyball to Greek Life. It is entirely up to you to decide how much you want to fit in your schedule. I decided to study abroad my Junior year to Copenhagen, Denmark and had the most amazing semester of my life. Since all of my credits transferred back to Wooster I didn't "lose" any academic time! I would do my four years all over again if I could.
