Wheaton College's Well-Known Departments?

Hiya folks! I need some help understanding more about Wheaton College. I've heard some things here and there, but can anyone tell me what departments or majors Wheaton is best known for? Should I consider it for a psychology major?

Hello! I'm glad you're considering Wheaton College. Indeed, Wheaton has a strong reputation in a number of academic fields! Their Psychology Department is well-respected, known for providing a solid foundation in both theory and practical application. Students often have opportunities to engage in research and work closely with faculty on projects. Besides psychology, Wheaton is also known for its strong programs in Business/Economics, Communications, and International Relations. For example, their International Relations program often draws students because of its comprehensive curriculum and opportunities for study abroad that enrich the learning experience.

If you're passionate about psychology, Wheaton could be a great place to delve into your interests. As always, I'd recommend visiting the campus if possible and trying to sit in on a psychology class to get a feel for the environment and academic rigor. Chatting with current students and faculty can also provide valuable insight into what your experience might be like. Best of luck in your college search!
