We aspire for Wesleyan to be a strong liberal arts institution where students become globally competent leaders. This requires knowledge, language skills, and cultural sensitivity in order to exercise effective and responsible citizenship in an increasingly interdependent world. We strongly believe that multilingual literacy has many benefits (cognitive, economic, social, health-related) and that as a result, all students should be encouraged to pursue the study of another language and to study abroad while at Wesleyan regardless of their field of study. This Admissions Open House event is intended to attract and inform prospective students about language studies and study abroad.
