For more than 150 years, Tennessee Wesleyan College has provided its students with an exceptional education and the opportunity to learn, serve, lead, and believe as they build the foundation of their futures. The College offers more than 30 undergraduate majors in the traditional liberal arts and is now offering its first graduate program, a Master of Science in Curriculum Leadership, as well as a number of professional and pre-professional programs. TWC prides itself on providing an academic environment in which students are fully engaged in their education and are intellectually challenged. A student-to-faculty ratio of 16:1 allows faculty to get to know each student as an individual. Students and professors develop strong bonds that extend outside of the classroom and beyond graduation. Tennessee Wesleyan encourages involvement in a wide variety of student activities, clubs, and organizations, both on and off campus, that provide opportunities for students to explore new interests and develop as leaders. In addition to its main Athens campus, TWC maintains a campus in Knoxville, providing classroom facilities for its Management Excellence (ME) evening program in business administration and the Fort-Sanders Nursing Department.
