School Counselors

With a challenging curriculum, yet an emphasis on support, particularly with first year on-boarding, Western New England will be an ideal fit for many of your students. Our welcoming and inclusive environment is increasingly diverse and international while Merit Scholarships keep us accessible.

We offer a rolling admissions policy with easy application via our Online Application or Common Application. We take a holistic view of applicants’ experiences. Many programs are test-optional. All students are automatically considered for our renewable and significant Merit Scholarships.

While students are strongly encouraged to attend Open Houses, program-specific events, and daily tours, we are also eager to welcome you to campus. Touring campus and meeting your counselor in person is a great way for you to experience Western New England through your students’ eyes.

Exploration is key to finding the right fit. Our Academics web portal features an “Interest Tool” enabling students to customize their focus as they explore similar programs. We are exploratory friendly, with the exception of pre-professional programs. Students typically declare majors in their sophomore year.

Our Admissions Counselors are eager to partner with you to help your students explore our programs, schedule a visit, and complete the application process. We also are happy to coordinate group visits from your school. Let’s talk!

Western New England places a strong emphasis on experiential learning. We work with more than 1,000 internship sponsors, provide opportunities for fieldwork, research, real-world projects, and relevant study abroad.
