International Students
Wilmington College celebrates diversity and what each of us can learn from one another and it is for this reason that our faculty, staff, and student body welcome international students to our campus and our online learning community. Our Wilmington College family will assist you in adapting to life as a Wilmington College student while obtaining your college education.
Wilmington College is rooted in historic Quaker values, also known as testimonies, which include integrity, service, stewardship, equality, peace and social justice and respect for all persons. These historic testimonies motivate those who learn and work at the College to make positive contributions to their professions and their communities. WC has a long history of advocating for peace and for marginalized people in the US and around the world.
Class sizes are small, meaning each student will have plenty of access to their professors and staff. We are a small school and can devote time and resources to each and every one of our students.
WC has several alumni from countries around the globe, including Cameroon, Nigeria, Kenya, and Sweden, among many others.
WC On Campus
Wilmington College is a welcoming campus community and people here will do everything they can to assist international students in adapting to the campus culture. We want international students to have an enjoyable, meaningful and successful experience at Wilmington College and in the United States.
WILMINGTON, OHIO
Wilmington College is located in Wilmington, Ohio, a safe and friendly town of approximately 13,000 residents located in Southwestern Ohio. It is within an hour’s drive of three major metropolitan areas: Cincinnati to the south, Columbus to the north, and Dayton to the west. Our international students tend to appreciate the fact that they can study in a quiet, peaceful environment during the week while able to take in the sights and activities that major cities offer on the weekends and during breaks.
