Wiley College Visit Leads to Offer

by

On April 13th, I took an unofficial visit to Wiley College. During that  visit, I met with Coach Jameus Hartsfield. I am blessed to say that I have received an offer from Wiley College.

Wiley College is a four-year, private, historically black, liberal arts college located on the west side of Marshall, Texas. Founded in 1873 by the Methodist Episcopal Church’s Bishop Isaac Wiley and certified in 1882 by the Freedman’s Aid Society, it is notable as one of the oldest predominantly black colleges west of the Mississippi River.

In 2005–2006, on-campus enrollment approached 450, while an off-campus program in Shreveport, Louisiana, for students with some prior college credits who seek to finish a degree, enrolled about 250. As of the fall of 2006, total enrollment was about 750. By fall of 2013, total enrollment was approximately 1,400.

Wiley is an open admissions college and about 96 percent of students receive some financial aid.
