since 1888, wheelock college has been providing a transformational education to students p-ssionate about making the world a better place—especially for children and families.

while most of our students elect to work in the helping professions of education, social work, child life, and juvenile justice and youth advocacy, many pursue, and make exceptional contributions to, a wide variety of professions.

we offer a unique blend of:

a mission-driven focus;

close collaboration with faculty in small cl-sses;

an array of undergraduate arts and sciences programs coupled with professional programs that enable most students to graduate with double majors;

graduate offerings that support professionals throughout their careers; and

real-world work experiences each semester at wheelock that help students integrate theory with real-world practice, making them highly sought-after graduates.

together, these catalysts for change help our students develop the knowledge, confidence, perspective and drive to pursue personal and professional lives of substance, meaning, and satisfaction anywhere in the world they choose to live and work.

as a highly respected advocate for social policy, wheelock also helps to shape and strengthen the social systems that positively impact children and families around the globe.

wheelock college is an insane asylum. there is 80% girls, 70% of them being over weight. the 20 percent of men, is fully composed of tools who think more about themselves then their education. the cafe food is worse than you’re great grandmothers meatloaf. every person of high authority only has their high school diploma. the students here are more worried about the drama, rather than their own educations. the dorm buildings have rat infestations, excluding the two ‘newer dorms’, who are only accessed by students with an abundance of daddy and mommy’s money. the academic advisor is more worried about her lame life-metaphors – including that everyone at wheelock drives their own bus, and wheelock’s faculty is behind us every step of the way. the library is louder than a 6 year olds basketball practice. we have no gym, athletic facilities, or decent sports teams what so ever.

and anyone is welcome! half of our students are straight out of the funny farm, so no need to feel like you’ll be rejected.
man – “you see that crazy person over there?”
