Academics

The classes at Wilmington are not for slackers. They are difficult and challenging, but an A is definitely in reach if you push yourself and put in the effort. The instructors present the material in a way that makes it interesting and easy to learn. This does not mean that studying is an option though, studying is a must. For many students, high school is a breeze due to the fact that teachers teach what will be on the test. At Wilmington though, teachers teach the material and expect you to have a full grasp of it. The instructors want you to take the information they provide and be able to see it conceptually.

If you organize and plan, you can pass your classes without extensive mental exhaustion. Professors vary, but all of them are willing to help and answer questions. Procrastination is your biggest enemy because many important projects/papers tend to be due around the same time. With proper preparation and adequate studying most people can succeed.
