University Information

Nebraska Wesleyan University educates students to become thoughtful citizens and successful leaders. That’s why our general education curriculum is entitled, “Preparing for Global Citizenship.” We believe that students need to explore the world and its peoples to understand their place in that world; this exploration helps them communicate across borders, contribute to the solution of complex issues, and leave the world a better place than they found it.

Nebraska Wesleyan realizes that cost is a major factor in the decision to study abroad. That’s why we belong to the International Student Exchange Program (ISEP) where NWU students can study abroad for the same price as studying on campus. That’s also true for exchange study at our three sister universities in Japan (Kwansei Gakuin University), Mexico (Tec de Monterrey in Querétaro) and Estonia (University of Tartu).

In addition, the International Education Office awards Education Abroad Grants to students with financial need who want to study abroad on exchange programs or faculty–led study abroad trips. The International Education Office also assists students to apply for other study abroad scholarships and grants.

Nebraska Wesleyan offers a full range of study abroad options so that every student has the opportunity to study abroad. These options range from "island programs" where students travel together with a Nebraska Wesleyan professor for two to three weeks to a full year of "immersion" where students study with native students in the classroom.
