Student services

Wingate University is proud of its commitment to educating global citizens for the 21st century. One way we do that is through the efforts of the Office of International Programs. Through their efforts, Wingate students can broaden their horizons by taking advantage of foreign travel through W’International courses. In addition to overseeing the study abroad program, the International Programs staff also provide international student services to students from more than 30 countries.

Housing services

There are six buildings primarily designated for first-year students, with a few wonderful themed-living communities. All first-year residence halls are coed to varying degrees: by floor, wing or alternating room. Students can indicate their preference on the housing questionnaire.

Library services

The Ethel K. Smith Library contains more than 95,000 print volumes and provides access to an array of resources. Subscriptions to online scholarly journals and InterLibrary Loan services expand research capabilities for students and faculty beyond what is available on the shelves.
