Nebraska Wesleyan University is committed to giving low-income Nebraskans full access to a high-quality college experience. One important tool in this effort is our Access NWU Scholarship Program.

On an NWU virtual tour, students and families can interact with a live ambassador at every point. We also connect your students to more live conversations with NWU professors, coaches and directors based on their academic and extracurricular interests.

Nebraska Wesleyan University launched its test-optional admission option a few years ago. We started it because research shows us a GPA earned over years of coursework is more predictive of students’ academic success than a single test score.

NWU’s new Lead the Way Scholarship is worth $4,000 over four years. And seniors at your high school can earn it today by applying to Nebraska Wesleyan through Early Action by October 15 and completing a one-page essay.

Nebraska Wesleyan University is offering a series of live virtual scholarship events based on a variety of academic interests. When your students tune in to the event matching their academic interest, they will receive a single scholarship worth $4,000 over four years.
