International Student Testimonies

My teachers, my host family, and the academic environment at Wheaton Academy all had a huge impact on my academic life and pushed me to pursue excellence. I discovered my potential through involvement in the community and interactions with teachers and friends.
Zoe XuGraduate of Ohio State University and of Northwestern University
Wheaton Academy has a wonderful university preparation program for international students. For me, the process of getting my desired test scores went very smoothly because of the help Wheaton Academy provided. I also had an amazing counselor for university preparation!
Grace ChangStudent at the University of Rochester
Wheaton Academy's college readiness helped me to thrive at UCSD academically, culturally, and spiritually... Living with a host family during my three-year stay at WA helped me adjust quickly to American culture. Compared to other international students at my university, I am able to adapt to the culture and make friends more easily.
Katherine WangStudent at UC Sandiego
Now that I am at UC Berkley, I realize how important all of my AP classes were and the advising that I received from my counselors. They didn't just give out the same plan for everyone; instead, each student was individually guided with specific plans based on their talents, personalities, and backgrounds. They saw my passion to challenge myself and gave me constant encouragement and many wise words which led me to a university which I love.
Peter WangStudent at UC Berkley
The encouragement I received from my teachers and friends when I failed and the praises I received from them when I succeeded pushed me to pursue excellence.

Start your application today

A student is considered an international student if an I-20 is required for residency AND the student will require housing with an approved Wheaton Academy family during the school year.

There are several steps to the admission process, and families are required to complete all of the steps before they can be considered for admission.

Wheaton Academy will be happy to provide a tour to any international student AFTER the family has completed the application process. Upon completion of the application process, our Admission Office will offer a tour date that works with your schedule.
