YOUR FUTURE, UP CLOSE

Spend a Saturday on campus getting to know Wesleyan - hearing directly from our President, exploring our beautiful grounds, sharing lunch with the community, and getting real answers about admission, financial aid, and student life. You’ll meet the professors, coaches, and students who will be in your corner from day one - and experience what makes Wesleyan feel like home.

Who’s invited:

  • High school students (all grades) and transfer students

  • Families and supporters are strongly encouraged to attend

Special highlights:

  • How does an extra $1,000 for your first year of college sound?

    Attending Experience Wesleyan Day will help you complete the Wesleyan Way Challenge and earn an additional, one-time $1,000 toward your first-year bill at Wesleyan. Take all three steps: submit your FAFSA, then attend Experience Wesleyan Day and share your Wesleyan moment on social media at our Experience Wesleyan Day Photo Booth and Social Corner.

  • Bring a friend. You both get free Wesleyan merch!

    Exploring what your future college life could look like is always better together! When you and your friend both register and attend Experience Wesleyan Day, you’ll each take home a free Wesleyan sweater. After you both register, email Skylar Torres at storres@wesleyancollege.eduwith both students’ full names, email address and sweater sizes. You must both attend to receive your free sweaters. 

  • On-the-Spot Scholarship Offers @ CCD: Seniors are encouraged to bring a copy of your unofficial high school transcript to our Admission Counselors for an on-the-spot admission and scholarship review, with eligibility information for $40,000–$64,000 in Entrance Scholarships over four years. Counselors will be available all afternoon for application support.

11:00–11:30 AM | A Wesleyan Welcome with President Meaghan Blight @ Oval Hall

Welcome to Wesleyan! President Meaghan Blight shares why Wesleyan’s mission - accelerating equality for women - matters more than ever and her vision for your next four years. Recognized as one of Macon Magazine’s Top 5 Under 40, she’s building a student experience that empowers women to grow their confidence and lead in their own way - and she’s keen to share what that looks like for you.

Join a Wesleyan Student Ambassador and see campus through a student’s eyes: historic marble-clad buildings, magnolia-lined pathways, and our tranquil lake and fountain. Step inside academic and community spaces and tour beautifully renovated Banks Hall to picture what on-campus dorm living looks like in your first-year at Wesleyan. Golf carts will be available for those who require accessibility support to enjoy our campus tour experience.

Our Student Ambassadors will escort you to two concurrent, interactive sessions - one for students and one for families/supporters - so everyone gets the info they need.

 

Student Session: Ask Wesleyan Students Anything @ Burden Parlor

Ask current Wesleyan students anything you really want to know: How do you make friends? What are classes and life at a women's college really like? What are weekends at Wesleyan like? Hear candid answers about campus traditions like our famous PACK Weekend, clubs, wellness, and finding your place in the Wolfpack. Then meet our Admission Counselors to map out your next steps and learn how to put your best foot forward for our full-ride Premier scholarships and the $80,000 CEO Scholarship.

 

Parent/Supporter Session: Maximize Funding & Build Their Future @ Oval Hall

Explore how to maximize scholarships and financial aid, reduce your family's college costs, and help your student turn their interests into a fulfilling future. Get clear guidance on FAFSA and state and federal aid, then meet our Center for Career Development (CCD) to discover From Here to Career, our four-year pathway to skills, confidence, and professional connections. Learn about our 100% experience guarantee: every student completes a paid internship, a research experience, or study abroad. See how that experience and personalized career support prepare your student for graduate school, a meaningful career, and life after graduation. Spanish speaking staff will be available for parents and supporters who prefer Spanish language support. 

2:15–4:00 PM | Open Showcase: Choose Your Experience @ Library
