Description
Community is one word that exemplifies Wingate University in Wingate, North Carolina. Another word is excitement.
Whether you’re pursuing a bachelor’s degree in Art, Communications, Human Services, Sociology, or Pre-Medicine or a graduate degree in Physician Assistance, you’re sure to do so in small classes, with maximum interaction among students and between students and faculty.
Contributing to this community feeling is Wingate’s contained campus of Southern historical buildings.
Since Wingate is a historically Christian university ministry, prayer and worship groups are a substantial part of Wingate’s campus life, all of which also help to create a close-knit student body.
However, Wingate also has student life offerings that are among the most exciting out there. With a world-class performing arts center, Wingate hosts performances from world renowned classic singers and groups, as well as new, cutting-edge performers.
With numerous study-abroad opportunities available through Wingate, students may also find excitement beyond the university walls.
While Wingate generally admits students with a strong academic performance record, the admissions committee takes all of the applicants’ activities and achievements into consideration.
Though you must qualify before receiving awards, many Wingate University students receive financial aid.
