    My sister graduated from here a few years ago and I'm transferring. I start in the spring and plan to graduate in 2022! Even though I haven't started classes yet everyone has been very helpful and welcoming, it makes me look forward to actually becoming a Txwes Ram and finishing my education!

    Texas Wesleyan is an outstanding private University! Smaller. Smarter. The classes are small which I believe hold up to no more than 40 students per class. That which is an advantage, and not only because you get to communicate with your Professor consistently but also because Wesleyan is awesome! They have a variety of clubs and organizations that help and assist students involve themselves in activities and internships! Our staff members involve themselves as much as possible in order for students to find their right major. We are a big family , regardless of how small we are. Also, I will never get tired of saying this... Everyone is nice. Texas Wesleyan is a diverse, fun and successful University. We have late night activities, for example, bonfires, cookouts, "Naked but Real", (students come out to share there art pieces including poems, songs etc.) sand volleyball, free shirts, free meals on occasions and tea! I can go on and on but my words are limited!
    The teachers are wonderful! The students are also great, but the financial aid sucks. It is terrible having to panic and come up with money you don’t have every semester. The tuition went up twice in the past two years. They pay almost everything for athletes that can fail classes, countlessly. It’s ridiculous for students who actually make A’s who have to take out loans on top of loans just so their classes don’t get dropped.
