History
On April 6, 1927, Grace Knight and Roger W. Babson founded the University which was to carry the last name of their granddaughter, Camilla Grace Webber. Webber was originally established as a women’s college, with the exclusive purpose of teaching women about business. It was the first school chartered under the educational and charitable laws of the State of Florida as a non-profit organization.

My university experience was both challenging
My university experience was a journey of growth and self-discovery. It came with its challenges, but those moments helped build my resilience and independence. I gained valuable academic knowledge
International Business Review
Since I�ve been a student of international business at WIBS, i have benefited from a well thought out program that covers a huge portion of business on an international scale, ranging from target audiencing to strategic marketing etc. How to effectively use supply chain management, social media marketing strategies, learning all of these has given me the skills and knowledge that�s expected to succeed in an ever evolving field.
Promising
I want to acknowledge that the school has potential, to be something great. If only they improve on the following things, one they have to be more supportive to the students to do. You have to be more understanding of the backgrounds of the students from 330 to improve on the cafeteria food.
