What Students Are Saying

The financial aid and business offices are there to help you as much as they can. They are kind and helpful which is something a lot of departments at other universities can lack.

Thomas from Lubbock, TX

If you're thinking about coming to Wayland, make sure you schedule a visit before you make any big commitments. Allow yourself enough time to really get a sense of what life at Wayland is like. There are several opportunities for perective freshmen and transfer students to stay over the weekend on campus for concerts and such, so take advantage of them! Eat the food, talk to the students, and meet a few professors. You'll be glad you did!

Allie from Hobbs, NM

Wayland has brought football back after a 70+ year break and they are ready to get in on the action. The coaches are awesome and want to teach the students the great game of football. It's a great time to get in on a new team and play some ball!
