A Message from the President

As our mission statement affirms, Wilmington University strives to offer the opportunity for higher education to all who seek it and are willing to work hard for it. We are committed to excellence in our classrooms, whether they are traditional, face-to-face units or cohorts of online learners. Our faculty design and deliver the academic rigor upon which our relevant, career-oriented programs are built. We offer these programs at an affordable price and provide caring, individual attention to our students. The enthusiastic, personal involvement of our Board of Trustees sets the bar high for our administrators, faculty, staff, and alumni to follow suit. These efforts have created a University community which reaches far beyond the state of Delaware. We have a physical presence in the surrounding states of Maryland and New Jersey, and our online programs continue to expand rapidly.

Our students are provided with the solid academic foundations, practical skills, and “real world” opportunities necessary to advance as innovators in their professions and leaders in their communities. We encourage active participation in an education that requires effort, challenges critical thinking, provides solid career preparation, instills ethical values, and inspires a commitment to lifelong learning. We encourage you to take advantage of all that we have to offer. Please explore our website, register for an information session online or face-to-face, call our University Information Center, or stop by one of our locations. We hope you will find a place here where you can begin, continue, or enhance your education.

This is our mission, and we invite you to become a part of it.

Dr. Jack P. Varsalona

President
