“What set IW apart for me was the small class sizes and clinical hours. I felt like I was able to work closely with my professors and was well prepared through many hours of clinical. IW has impacted my career opportunities by making me well prepared for life after college.  I felt as though I was ready to start in the emergency department once I finished school. It has also helped prepare me for continued education. I attribute being accepted into my Doctor of Nursing Practice program at Clarke University to the preparation and encouragement I received from my mentors at IW.”

“I went to a very small high school, so I didn’t want a large university. I didn’t want to sit in a large classroom and just blend in. At Iowa Wesleyan, all my teachers know me, and they know my goals. They are always there for me with the help and encouragement I need.”

“I would recommend Iowa Wesleyan to students who want professors that care about them and want to see them succeed outside of the classroom. Iowa Wesleyan helped me by preparing me for what the real world is like. The professors at Iowa Wesleyan are willing to push people to get 100 percent from them and will go out of their way to help students who are struggling. “

“The classes I’ve taken at Iowa Wesleyan have helped convince me that I am destined to be a Special Education teacher. Working as a Paraeducator for the past 7 years and my classes have given me the confidence to take this next step in my life’s journey and I couldn’t be more excited! Thank you IW!”

“The instruction I received in Early Childhood fully prepared me to be successful in the classroom. The professors made the learning very engaging and relevant. I really look forward to having my own Early Childhood classroom and implementing everything that I have learned!”

“I was wanting a college where I would have many opportunities to grow, have quality but personal instruction, and be in a supportive community. I found that and then some at Wesleyan. Iowa Wesleyan has also given me the opportunity to become more confident in who I am as a person and as a musician. I definitely made the right choice in coming here.”
