Visiting Campus

Interviews

  • Although interviews are not a required part of the application process, they are highly recommended.  Interviews at Wesleyan are evaluative, play a role in the admission process, and are a valuable opportunity for an exchange of information about both the candidate and the University.  Interviews are available on campus or in a student's selected area through our network of alumni interviewers.  Campus interviews are conducted by admission deans and senior interviewers.  Meet our senior interviewers!

  • We begin to interview rising seniors on campus on the first Monday in June.  Students may call beginning in May to make arrangements.  There are openings on weekdays from June 1, 2011 through December 16, 2011 and Saturday mornings between September 10, 2011 and December 3, 2011.  To schedule a campus interview please call the Office of Admission (860) 685-3000 or send an email to: (interview@wesleyan.edu).  Please include your full name, address, phone number, WesID, and two preferred dates, specifying morning or afternoon in your email. 

  • Campus interviews are required for transfer applicants attending a Connecticut Community College and those who are already taking classes at Wesleyan.   Interviews are offered Monday through Friday from June to the Transfer deadline of November 1st for Spring Transfer or March 15th for Fall Transfer. On-campus interviews may be scheduled through Nadine Dabbs at ndabbs@wesleyan.edu or (860) 685-2977 or with Laura McQueeney at (860) 685-2972.
