The faculty and staff of Indiana Wesleyan University are here to walk alongside you and your student in this incredible journey of higher education.
Please use this webpage as a resource for information and as a tool to feel better equipped to support your student at IWU.
Choosing a college is a big choice for your family. At IWU-Marion, you're paying for more than classes. Your student gets strong academics, real friends, and a Christian community. They'll grow in faith and get career support that lasts past graduation.
The IWU Career Promise is one example. What if an eligible residential graduate has no professional job six months after graduation? Or hasn't started grad school or joined the military? The Promise gives them another way forward.*
*The IWU Career Promise applies to Marion residential graduates with a GPA of 3.5, or higher. Other requirements apply. Review full eligibility requirements
Connect with other IWU parents, stay informed, and encourage one another throughout the college journey.

"Thank you (IWU Parent Connection) for your wisdom, kind words and encouragement over the last 3 years, my son has graduated. Best wishes to all Wildcats! Enjoy this season, it goes so quickly!" ~ Melissa M.

"My girl graduated today! The Parent Connection Facebook page has helped in so many ways! Thank you for always helping to navigate us through our kids college endeavors." ~ Kathy L.
Founded in 2024, the IWU Parent Council is comprised of parents and grandparents of both current and former students, working with the SGA (Student Government Association) to raise money for projects, assist communication, volunteer for events, and turn ideas into reality.
The establishment of the IWU Parent Council reflects the university’s ongoing commitment to a close-knit and long-lasting community wherein even the grandparents of alumni can play a role in influencing the future of the university.
