Information for Iowa Wesleyan Students
Visit Cornell's Campus Thursday, April 27th
Come visit us and see what we're all about. It's about an hour drive from Mount Pleasant to Mount Vernon and we encourage you to take a short road trip to get to know Cornell. A Cornell van will pick students up at 8:30 a.m. and return around 3:00 p.m. Lunch is on us.
Transfer to Cornell
Iowa Wesleyan students looking to transfer to another 4-year liberal arts college to complete their bachelor’s degree will be welcomed at Cornell College with a financial aid package that matches their current aid from Iowa Wesleyan. Students whose financial need is not currently met will also be eligible for an additional $1000 transfer scholarship.
