Wesleyan College

Macon, in central Georgia, is home to Wesleyan College’s 200-acre lakeside campus. Campus life includes athletics, clubs, traditions and student activities, with historic Porter Gym undergoing renovation and expansion. Wesleyan was the first college in the world chartered to grant degrees to women. Its educational approach gives women space to develop their voices, practise leadership and support one another.

Students can connect academic interests with career direction and purpose. Areas represented in student and faculty work include international relations, biology, Japanese language and culture, music, ornithology, international business, political science and modern languages. Students have pursued self-designed majors and taken part in research, community organizing, human rights work, leadership roles and international experiences. Every student graduates with at least one resume-building internship, and some internships lead to a first job after graduation.

International students join a college committed to educating women for leadership and to building intercultural friendships. Examples from the Wesleyan community include study of Japanese language, work with nonprofit organizations and international business experience. Applicants can apply with an unofficial transcript, and SAT or ACT scores are not required. Fall 2027 applicants may receive an admission decision and scholarship offer within days, with published scholarship offers ranging from $40,000 to $64,000 over four years.
