Yes, there's ivy on our walls.
The comparisons don't end there.
Personalized. Competitive. Hands-on. Three reasons why Wilkes University has been called "the Ivy League of pharmacy and nursing."

Let's start with personalized.
Our size allows us to provide a uniquely supportive atmosphere where students have ready access to professors on and off campus. Where you can ask for help from peers. Or where you can seek out practicing professionals who can set you on the right career path. At Wilkes, you'll get noticed, and you'll have opportunities to make a difference from Day One.

We're competitive.
In fact, pharmacy students at Wilkes have turned down scholarships from prestigious universities like Yale to enroll in our programs. Each year we have many more applicants than seats. And our nursing program has a reputation for quality that stretches back for decades.

Our students make one-on-one house calls to area senior citizens,
have worked on Native American reservations, and have played a key role in the survival of six faith-based clinics in the Wyoming Valley. We make every effort to ensure you get the hands on experience you need to succeed in your career. But we also teach you to think and solve problems on your own, since they're the qualities that will lead to even greater success.

Finally, Wilkes provides a venue for exploration.
This isn't a university where pharmacy and nursing students get together at lunch and interact with other pharmacy and nursing students while the engineers and English majors sit among their groups at other tables. At Wilkes, you're encouraged to explore courses and minors outside your discipline, to give you the wellrounded experience that college life is all about.

Feel free to get in touch with us if you have questions or would like to learn more about any of our programs. We look forward to welcoming you.
