Academics

Wooster is a very rigorous institution. You have to petition to take more than 4 courses at any given time, which leaves many people wondering how hard could this actually be, but it's done this way because all classes have high expectations and large amounts of in-class and home work. It all accumulates into Junior and Senior IS, which is essentially an undergraduate independent project or thesis. The difficulty is balanced my the professors, however, because they are always willing to help if you ask.

The classes you take here are not intended to be east, be prepared to work but also be rewarded accordingly. I rarely have any busy work and most of the homework is very stimulating and helpful.
