Welcome to Nebraska Wesleyan University

Welcome to Nebraska Wesleyan University. I hope that in navigating our website you find plenty of useful information about this fine institution. But to really get to know us, please come and visit the campus. I know you’ll receive a warm welcome from the University’s 1,600 students and the several hundred members of its faculty and staff.

For more than 120 years Nebraska Wesleyan has provided a challenging education, rooted in the liberal arts, that prepares students for both productive careers and fulfilling lives. Founded by Nebraska Methodists in 1887, the University has always welcomed persons of all faiths and backgrounds. Today it enrolls students from 25 states and 15 countries. Bachelor’s degrees are offered with a choice of 48 majors. The University also offers three master’s degrees of exceptionally high quality. Year after year Nebraska Wesleyan students and professors win awards for all they accomplish in learning and teaching. I take great pride in my opportunity to serve such a fine University as its 16th president.

Yours truly,

Frederik Ohles
President
