For adults, Wingate University offers convenient evening programs
in Matthews to help them complete their bachelor’s degree or earn a master’s degree in business or education.
The ideal size of Wingate University (2,159
students) provides a supportive environment with small classes and personal attention from professors who know their students by name. A majority of students live on campus in dorms and fully-equipped apartments which add to the community atmosphere.
Wingate brings education to life as students explore their faith and serve the community through 42 student-run clubs and organizations.
Students also gain real life experience through internship opportunities and research partnerships. Many upperclassmen take advantage of study-abroad programs at little additional cost.
Athletics is also an important part of the Wingate experience. One third of Wingate students compete in 19 NCAA Division II intercollegiate sports and even more participate in an extensive intramural program.
Finally, Wingate University believes that no student should be denied an education because of expenses. To bring the Wingate experience within a family’s budget, the university awards scholarships based on academic merit, athletics, music, church and community involvement. Scholarships for transfer students are also available as well as
a variety of federal grants and loans.
