Wheaton students enjoy quality meals, and enjoy classes and texts "so stimulating that sometimes I actually want to work," according to this report. Read all eleven categories in which our students ranked us highly.
The Washington Monthly college rankings says Wheaton is 3rd in the nation among liberal arts colleges. These rankings are based on institutions that are "doing well by doing good."
Kiplinger's rates Wheaton 12th for Best Values in Private Colleges. Wheaton ranked
1st for (lowest) total cost,
9th for (lowest) cost after need based aid. Kiplinger's rankings measure academic quality and affordability, with quality accounting for two-thirds of the total.
The book Colleges that Change Lives included Wheaton on this select list of 40 schools. Author Loren Pope said, "Wheaton is often called the Harvard of the evangelicals, but that moniker does not do it justice because it is head, shoulders, and heart above Harvard in its concern with good moral compasses and strong value systems, as well as in the percentage of future Ph.D.s it has turned out."
Peterson's says of Wheaton, "The academic curriculum combines with the extensive cocurriculum of artistic, athletic, religious, service, and social activities to achieve a lively interaction of Christian faith, learning, and living."
