At Wilkes University, you'll be engaged by a dedicated, passionate faculty who are genuinely interested in your personal growth and success. Students enjoy an open-door policy that results in a level of personal attention rare in the academic world. Ever heard of a professor encouraging you to switch out of the subject they're teaching because they think a different course would benefit you more? It's not unheard of at Wilkes.
Student Testimonials"I heard the nursing program was very good. The fact that they start clinical a year earlier than most schools attracted me. Once I toured the campus, I really loved it. I felt really welcome."
Jasmine King, (Nursing)
"I liked that they had a pharmacy school, yet I was able to explore social sciences, language studies and even take some business classes such as marketing — all of which are helping to shape my future career aspirations. Many of the pharmacy schools I looked into didn't allow you to pursue a second major or explore electives outside of the pharmacy school once you were in, but Wilkes did."
Justin Balint,(Pharmacy)
"When I wanted to create an Engineering Olympics, Prof. Gilmer didn't only give me the go ahead, he let me plan, organize, run and oversee the entire event. I know this type of leadership building is going to help my career take off in the Air Force."
Anthony Mirabile, (Electrical Engineering)
"In the classroom, Dr. (Paola) Bianco has been very inspiring for me and has always helped to keep me involved. I always feel I can talk to her and she's always extremely supportive."
Anna Mitchell, (Spanish and International Studies)
