Nebraska Wesleyan University is famous as a small school with an outstanding track record for student academic and athletic achievement.

We’re 12th nationally in Academic All-America Awards with 104. That’s as many as Ohio State, a school with a student body of over 60,000. (NWU’s is roughly 2,000.)

We’ve produced four Fulbright scholars a year an impressive four times since 2000.

Our students have won five Harry S. Truman scholarships for public service, including three in the last five years.

And we’re fourth in Division III for NCAA Postgraduate scholarships.

It’s a record of success that compares favorably with any liberal arts institution in our region.
