Description
A small, private college affiliated with the Religious Society of Friends (or Quakers), Wilmington College in Wilmington, Ohio, offers a personal education that promotes intellectual rigor, service, social justice and other values of the Quaker Church. Liberal arts majors at Wilmington include:

Within and outside of the classroom students are called upon to look at ways they can bring Quaker values of tolerance, peace and equality to the world. Two of the college’s institutes, the Peace Resource Center and the Quaker Heritage Center both provide opportunities for students to learn about and explore ways of practicing these ideals.
Admitted Wilmington students generally have a grade point average of at least 2.5 and a combined SAT score of at least 870. Most applicants have also undertaken a college prep curriculum.
However, students not meeting these requirements may also be admitted since Wilmington also considers recommendation letters, extracurricular activities, one’s essay of intent and the in-person interview.
Financial aid offerings include federal loans and tuition installment and deferral plans. Students may also apply for private scholarships, such as those awarded by the Blue Ash Business Association.
