| CAMPUS SUMMARY |
 |
Wiley College, the first historically Black college west of the Mississippi, was founded in 1873 by Bishop Issac Wiley of the United Methodist Church and the Freedman's Aid Society to prepare newly emancipated people for the future. Through a tradition of education excellence and leadership, Wiley College became a pathway to scholarship, a vista of values, and a bulwark of integrity. Wiley College is committed to providing students with a broad liberal arts and career-oriented education in a Christian environment, promoting teaching and learning excellence, and improving the quality of human experience.
Wiley College is located in the Piney Woods of northeast Texas in the city of Marshall and serves the youth of Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, Oklahoma, and consistently attracts students from throughout the United States and from many foreign countries. |
