Wheaton Passage

Wheaton's transition program for first-year students.


Embrace the Adventure!

Wheaton Passage is designed to ignite the Wheaton College experience for incoming students. Whether you choose the wilderness track, camp track, urban track, your time will be filled with adventure, challenge and new friendships.

All tracks culminate with five days at HoneyRock during which time a faculty member will join your small group and lead you through a curriculum based on the following four themes: foundations of a world view, community, spiritual formation, and service.

If you've ever been to HoneyRock before you know it doesn't get much better than this! You'll develop strong spiritual and social foundations upon which to build an effective college experience. Participate in one-on-one interactions and learning with a Wheaton College faculty member in a small group setting with fellow students. A truly memory-making shared experience with over 200 of your fellow Wheaton College classmates. Did we mention this program is fun?

Bottom line - Wheaton Passage is a unique opportunity to spend some quality time that will prepare you to get the most from your Wheaton College experience. You will also pick up 2 hours of credit before you even step foot on the main Wheaton campus.

Choose Your Track:

All tracks will come together August 18 at HoneyRock for several days of small group discussions with Wheaton College faculty, service projects in the local community, and activities. On August 23, all Passage students will travel back to Wheaton in time for on-campus orientation.
