The Wesleyan Freeman Asian Scholarship Program provides expenses for a
four-year course of study toward a bachelor’s degree for up to eleven
exceptionally able Asian students annually from these countries and regions: the
People’s Republic of China, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, the
Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, and Vietnam.
• Applications must be postmarked or submitted online by January 1, 2010.
• Students are advised to register now for SAT (or ACT) and TOEFL or IELTS.
• Notification by April 1, 2010.
• Japan notification by March 1, 2010.
Wesleyan is now accepting applications for participation in the Wesleyan
Freeman Asian Scholarship Program. The chosen applicants will join 2,800 other
Wesleyan undergraduates from throughout the United States and nearly 50
countries for study with an outstanding teaching and research faculty in the
sciences and mathematics, the arts, the humanities, and the social and
behavioral sciences.
This program is made possible by Wesleyan University and the Freeman
Foundation, which aims to improve understanding and to strengthen ties between
the United States and the countries and regions of the Pacific Rim.
Wesleyan University is located in Middletown, Connecticut, halfway between
New York and Boston in the historic and colorful New England region of the
northeastern United States. It is a private, nonsectarian, liberal arts and
sciences institution founded in 1831. A number of early Wesleyan graduates were
influential educators and ministers in Asian countries, and the modern Wesleyan
has formal ties to several prominent universities in Asia. The campus is home to
a diverse population of 2,800 undergraduate students, equally divided between
men and women, approximately 26 percent of whom are of African, Asian, or
Hispanic descent, and nearly 190 students from foreign countries.
Approximately 200 graduate students, a number of whom are from Asian
countries, are pursuing advanced degrees, principally in the sciences,
mathematics, and music.
Wesleyan provides instruction in 47 major fields of study. Unlike some
university systems abroad, in which students focus on one academic field, most
American universities are based on a curricular tradition of liberal arts and
sciences, in which breadth and depth of study are deemed equally important. At
Wesleyan, the major programs of study involve one-third to one-half of a
student’s course work, with the remaining time devoted to exploration of a
variety of fields through which a student may broaden his or her background and
understanding. More than 900 courses are offered, in which interdisciplinary
pursuits are encouraged and an international perspective is fundamental.
Wesleyan graduates go on in high numbers to the best graduate and
professional schools in the United States and to successful careers in
engineering, business, law, medicine, education, politics, international
relations, social service, and the arts. The primary purpose of study at
Wesleyan, however, is not to provide vocational training in a specific area. The
objectives of a Wesleyan education include the development of self-educating men
and women who have mastered a major field, have learned to think critically, are
cognizant of the variety of human experience, and have acquired the habits of
imaginative and disciplined minds.
The liberal arts at Wesleyan are founded on an atmosphere of freedom, small
college traditions, faculty resources, and student diversity. The University
provides the facilities and opportunities of a research university while
retaining the emphasis on teaching and the intimacy of a small college. The
undergraduate student-to-faculty ratio is 9:1, enabling the faculty to provide
direct and particular attention to undergraduate education. Wesleyan’s more than
330 teacher-scholars believe that scholarly research and active teaching are
mutually reinforcing. The University’s curriculum is unusually flexible, and
students work closely with a faculty advisor in planning all programs and
majors.

STUDENT LIFE
Many undergraduates cite the University’s relatively small size as a source
of satisfaction with campus life. The community is small enough so that the
individual may feel at home, yet large enough to provide a rich variety of
activities and acquaintances.
Life can be very full for undergraduates. Outside the classroom, they may
select from more than 200 different student organizations that range in interest
from theatrical productions to environmental activism, from the Wesleyan Argus
newspaper and the debate club to Ultimate Frisbee, from the Asians for Community
Empowerment to West African drumming or a chamber music group. The University’s
state-of-the-art athletic center encourages students to participate in
athletics, either in one of 27 varsity sports or at the intramural level.
Parties and social gatherings are held at student residences, at the campus
center, at fraternity houses, and at restaurants in Middletown. Bringing the
wider world closer, prominent scholars, artists, musicians, actors, and dancers
come to the campus regularly, and the weekly campus calendar features a
continuous program of concerts, plays, films, and lectures.

RESIDENTIAL LIFE
All Wesleyan students are guaranteed housing on campus for the full four
years. They may choose among several options for housing and dining, and more
than 90 percent of them live on or within one block of the campus. First-year
students generally live in one of several residence hall complexes in either a
double or single room. After the first year, Wesleyan offers a variety of
housing options, including apartment complexes, furnished houses, and small
rental houses. Membership in the dining plan is required for all four years,
which allows students to eat in the many on-campus facilities as well as to buy
food at the campus grocery store and cook their own meals. The
Usdan University
Center,
opened in August 2007, provides a central location for dining and social
activities.

THE FREEMAN FOUNDATION
The first Wesleyan Freeman Asian Scholars enrolled at Wesleyan in September
of 1995. The Freeman Foundation, sponsor of the Wesleyan Freeman Asian
Scholarship Program, was established in 1994 through the bequest of Mansfield
Freeman, a businessman, benefactor, scholar, and longtime resident in Asia who
was a member of the Wesleyan University Class of 1916. Mr. Freeman was an
insurance executive and one of the original founders of what is now the American
International Group, Inc. (AIG). The New York–based Freeman Foundation, which
established the Wesleyan Freeman Asian Scholarship Program in memory of
Mansfield Freeman, is administered primarily by the Freeman family; its
charitable efforts are directed mainly toward bettering relationships and
understanding between the United States and the countries of East Asia. This
program’s goal is for Freeman Asian Scholars to become leaders in their home
countries.

SCHOLARSHIP FINANCIAL AWARDS
Scholars Each Freeman Scholar will receive a scholarship to cover
the cost of tuition and student fees (called "full tuition scholarship")
regardless of his or her family's financial situation. Although costs are
not yet established for 2010-2011, in the 2009-2010 school year tuition and fees
total $40,392. Families wishing to apply for financial aid to assist with the
costs associated with room, board, travel, and books and supplies should submit
The Profile
TM Form of the
College Scholarship Service (CSS) by February 15. Wesleyan's Financial Aid
Office will determine the family contribution. The family contribution is
comprised of a parent contribution based on the parent(s) income and assets, as
well as a student contribution.
A scholarship applicant who is not requesting financial aid to cover the
costs beyond tuition will need to provide documentation that his or her family
has the financial resources to pay those costs by submitting the
Certification of
Finances Form. The form must show that the family can fund approximately
$16,000 per academic year. (Again, the cost of attendance is not yet set for the
2010-2011 academic year, but the additional budget for new matriculants in the
2009-2010 academic year is $13,705 not including travel; residential
comprehensive fee $11,040; books and miscellaneous $2,665).

FREEMAN SCHOLARS
Applicants for the academic year beginning in late August must have completed
their secondary schooling* (high school) by then and must be citizens or
permanent residents of one of these eleven countries or regions: China, Hong
Kong, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, South Korea,
Taiwan, Thailand, or Vietnam. Preference will be given to those currently living
in one of these eleven countries or regions and to those who would otherwise be
unable to study in the United States. Individuals with dual U.S. citizenship or
who are permanent U.S. residents are not eligible. Students who must fulfill a
military service requirement may apply in their final year of school but waiting
until the year in which one can enroll is preferable.
*Students following the British O- and A-level system typically will be
enrolled in their second year of the A-level program at the time of application.
We cannot consider students from Malaysia on the basis of forecast SPM results;
students there should be enrolled in the second year of the STPM at the time of
application. Students already enrolled in university are not eligible for
Wesleyan Freeman Asian Scholarships. In South Korea, a student may accept a
place in a Korean university for February 2010, pending our scholarship
decision.
Admission to Wesleyan and the selection process for Wesleyan Freeman Asian
Scholars is extremely competitive. We plan to award the scholarship to one
student from each of the eleven countries or regions. Selection criteria
include academic achievement; intellectual curiosity; a high level of discipline
and commitment; strong personal qualities; extracurricular involvement,
especially community service; and English language ability.
It is our preference to enroll students currently studying and residing in
their home countries, but students who are temporarily living elsewhere may
apply. Please note that interviews of finalists take place in students' home
countries or regions.
Freeman Asian Scholars are expected to return to their home countries upon
completion of their degrees. (We understand that some students may wish to
continue their education with graduate studies in the United States, which would
be at their own expense.)
Successful applicants will be notified by April 1, except in Japan, where
they will be notified by March 1. Alternates also will be chosen in the event
that any of those initially selected decide not to accept the offer. Wesleyan
will provide the necessary forms for obtaining an F-1 student visa to the United
States.

REQUIRED TESTING
To qualify, applicants must take the SAT Reasoning Test of the College Board
or the ACT.
(Applicants in the People’s Republic of China, where the SAT is not available,
are exempt from this requirement.) Non-native speakers of English also must take
the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL), or the IELTS (International
English Language Testing System) in place of the TOEFL. Students should receive
a score that demonstrates sufficient proficiency in the English language to
function well in a highly demanding academic environment. A score close to 600
on the paper-based TOEFL or 250 on the computer-based TOEFL, or a 100 on the
internet-based test or a “7” on the IELTS, would be evidence of adequate English language ability. (A high score –
650 or better – on the critical reading section of the SAT may also demonstrate
the necessary English language proficiency. In such cases, submitting the TOEFL
or IELTS results is not necessary.) These examinations must be taken by January
1. All examinations are administered on several dates, with a registration
deadline approximately six weeks before the exam. Please be sure to list
Wesleyan University (undergraduate) as an official score recipient.
We encourage students to contact the local EducationUSA office near them for
information about registering and taking standardized entrance examinations such
as the SAT and TOEFL, as well as for additional assistance applying. A
complete list of their locations can be found at
www.educationusa.state.gov/centers/

APPLICATION
Interested students must submit
The Common Application,
that includes
background information, essay, a secondary (high) school/junior college
transcript, recommendations from two teachers and one counselor, and results (or predictions if available) of any standardized national examinations administered
during the secondary school/junior college years. Applicants must also complete
the
Freeman Scholarship Addendum which includes an additional essay and peer
reference. Both the Common Application and the Freeman Scholarship Addendum can
be accessed by links from our website:
www.wesleyan.edu/admission. Officials from Wesleyan and
the Freeman Foundation will travel to Asia and conduct interviews of finalists
in their home countries in February or March. All application materials are to
be postmarked or submitted online no later than January 1. (For students in the Philippines, we
recommend using the online option or mailing your application earlier or using a courier service.)
Please note that there is no longer a printed application packet
available. Applicants must access the required forms electronically.
It is likely that some highly qualified applicants who would otherwise be
admissible to Wesleyan will not be chosen for the highly selective Freeman Asian
Scholarship. No financial aid is available to such students, but those who
do not require financial assistance to attend are encouraged to apply as
"regular" applicants to Wesleyan University. To be considered as a
"regular" (non-aided) admission candidate in the event that you are not selected
as a Freeman Scholar, please indicate your interest on the Freeman Scholarship Addendum
(supplemental materials).
There is no application fee for
students applying only for the Freeman Asian Scholarship but candidates also
wishing to be considered as a "regular" candidate do submit the $55 application
fee. Dual Freeman
Asian Scholarship/"Regular" admission candidates must submit a
Certification of Finances form documenting that the family has sufficient resources to fund the entire cost of
education, approximately $54,000 each year.
All applicants to Wesleyan are instructed to monitor the receipt of their
application materials by using our web-based
WesCheck page. Using your last
name and assigned WesID number, you can view application materials received as
well as outstanding items. It is important to use
WesCheck regularly (after September
15) to be sure your application is complete.
