HOME Home away from

Living on campus is an essential part of your college experience! Students who live on campus are closer to their classes, the library, and all the excitement on campus! Campus residents are more involved in student organizations and often have higher GPAs because of the integration of academic, social, and residential aspects of college life for students so that students’ experiences–from the classroom to the dining hall to their living space–are seamless.

Residential students can be in the dining hall for breakfast, attend a study session or be in class in five minutes or less – a big plus to students with a full schedule! Residence halls range from community style living to furnished suites and apartments, and all residential students enjoy varied dining options that will exceed the expectations of the most discerning palate!

"Kentucky Wesleyan has become my home away from home. Not only have I made friendships that will last a lifetime but, I have also learned so much to prepare me for my future. Everyone, especially the faculty, are so supportive and have really inspired me to achieve my goals. Wesleyan will always be my second home and my second family!

Financial Aid can be confusing. We are here to help.

Scholarships and other aid can help with the cost of your education, and you may also qualify for other aid by filing the FAFSA.

FAFSA

The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is the only way to apply for federal student aid. Kentucky Wesleyan will use FAFSA information to evaluate your financial need and determine how much federal aid you are eligible to receive.

The FAFSA will be available in October for the upcoming school year.

Complete the FAFSA online at www.fafsa.gov.

You will need to provide personal and tax information when you complete the FAFSA.
