Scholarship - NCWC

NC Wesleyan College - First our Fall Open House is scheduled - Monday, November 11, 2013. For more information and to register please go to http://www.ncwc.edu/admissions/open-house.php.


Next, North Carolina Wesleyan College understands how demanding the cost of higher education has become and how this financial burden keeps many deserving students from having access to a four year college education. NC Wesleyan College has adopted the John and Charles Wesley Heritage Scholarship Initiative to address this dilemma. The scholarship fully underwrites tuition, room, board, and books for entering freshman and transfer students. Students interested in the John and Charles Wesley Scholarship Initiative should have a minimum math and verbal SAT combined score of 1100 or a corresponding ACT score of 24 with a weighted high school GPA of a 3.5. For more information on this please feel free to contact me.
If anyone of your students would like to apply for admission please forward them to our website at www.ncwc.edu. There is no application fee if a student fills out the application.
