Hear from the Global Programs and Studies Office (GPS) about international semester and summer opportunities, and learn more about Wheaton's unique 'Human Needs and Global Resources' (HNGR) program.
The CVC prepares students for life after Wheaton. Their robust curriculum covers your freshmen year (self-discovery, StrengthsFinders, career options) through your senior year (resume/interview prep, learning about taxes/benefits, on-campus employer visits) through events, career-coach support, a 'Borrow a Blazer' closet, and the latest in tech for virtual interviews. Tour the CVC space and meet staff and student ambassadors!
The Office of Multicultural Development (OMD) and International Student Programs (ISP) would like to invite #MyWheaton Days students and families to join them for an Open House! Following the closing session, stop by their spaces in the lower level of Beamer Student Center from 4:15-5:00pm. Enjoy something to eat and get to know some of the staff and current students that have found these communities to be their home away from home. *In April, this will coincide with ISP's 'Rice Friday' event - This weekly event is hosted by ISP in partnership with other student-led organizations and offices on campus to offer a cultural dish and a time of fellowship for students, staff, and faculty. We hope you are able to stay to join us!
We are excited to host admitted students on campus - we know that seeing what life is like in the residence halls is an important part of your college decision! Our volunteer hosts look forward to welcoming you into the world of Residence Life in our two underclassman residence halls.
Students will be asked if they would like to stay overnight in the residence halls when they register for My Wheaton Days. Overnight hosting will be assigned on a first come, first served basis and, while every effort will be made to accommodate all requests, overnight hosting can not be 100% guaranteed.
Travel Assistance may be available for those traveling from out of state.
