Founded in 1850, Illinois Wesleyan has grown to become one of the nation's leading liberal arts institutions. The University enrolls just over 2,000 undergraduates from across the nation and around the globe and our graduates can be found in all 50 states and 52 countries. Illinois Wesleyan's distinctive liberal arts curriculum is at the core of our 80 majors, minors and programs. Courses of study range from the traditional liberal arts to programs in business, the fine arts, nursing and eight pre-professional programs. Our 2,000 students benefit from an average class size of 17 and an 11 to 1 student-faculty ratio, giving them the kind of personal attention from faculty that is often missing at large universities.
