There is no way to describe the Virginia Wesleyan community in words or pictures - you must experience it for yourself! Campus visits are an important part of your college decision-making process; therefore, we invite you to learn first-hand what it is like to be a part of our family!
Your visit to Virginia Wesleyan College will include an information session by an Admissions staff member and a student-led tour by one of our Wesleyan Ambassadors. Visits take approximately 1-2 hours. To better accommodate you, appointments are highly recommended.
To schedule a visit, contact the Admissions Office at 800.737.8684 (toll free) or 757.455.3208 or e-mail us at admissions@vwc.edu.
