Weekday Campus Visits
Weekday visits automatically include a campus tour, led by a current student (60 minutes) and an individual meeting (20-30 minutes) with an admission counselor (or a group information session if visitor volume warrants it). Additional optional activities include the opportunity to sit in on a class, to meet with a professor and/or coach, and to enjoy a meal on campus.

Delaware: Our Hometown
Our hometown of 39,000 residents is one of the top 20 fastest-growing areas in the country. And there are heaping helpings of things to do in and around Historic Downtown Delaware. First Friday events on Sandusky Street. Farmers Market Saturdays. Art. Music. Theatre. Restaurants. Shops. Outdoor activities. Volunteer opportunities.
OWU is just 30 minutes from Columbus, the 14th-largest city in America, so it's easy to dig into all that the city has to offer. From pro sports and eclectic restaurants to major concerts, art galleries, and shopping, Columbus is a major destination. Not to mention you’ll have opportunities for impressive internships and work experiences.
The Admission and Financial Aid offices are thrilled to welcome visitors to the newly renovated, historic Slocum Hall. Parking is available in the East parking Lot, off of Sandusky Street, just north of Edwards Gymnasium. There will be marked spaces for admission guests on the north side of this lot.

Making OWU Affordable
At Ohio Wesleyan University, we can help make your college education affordable—99% of students receive some form of financial aid.
All students are considered for OWU’s academic scholarships ranging from $15,000 to full tuition. Plus, our Admission and Financial Aid staff will work with you personally to consider every form of aid for which you may be eligible. On average, our students receive $45,000 in scholarships or aid per year.
All our students begin their time here without a declared major. You have plenty of time to decide, change your mind, or join almost a third of our students who choose two majors.
At OWU, you get to explore, test, and decide on a major that matches your interests, abilities, and skill sets and leads to one or more career possibilities. Explore more than 70+ program options!
Get ready for the Oh-Wooo spirit! We’re rich in tradition with events like our Day on the JAY celebration. We have a national reputation, according to the many rankings we’ve earned by U.S. News & World Report, The New York Times, The Princeton Review, and more.
Plus, the OWU community is friendly, supportive, inclusive, diverse, active, helpful, and feels like home (a real description from students!). Not to mention, we breed successful alumni: 97% start a career or grad school within 6 months of graduating.
