As Kansas' largest metropolitan area — with a growing population approaching 700,000
— Wichita is a major regional center for commerce, finance, healthcare, culture and
entertainment. But despite its growth, Wichita hasn't lost its friendly Midwestern
feel, and that makes it a virtual utopia for aspiring college students.
Applied Learning
At Wichita State, applied learning is a big part of what we do. As a Shocker, you'll
get the chance to work side by side with established professionals, building contacts,
confidence and a strong resume before graduation.
Wichita State is an engine of innovation, with acres of campus dedicated to research
and collaboration between students, faculty and business partners to get new ideas
off the ground.
Shockers have access to all the arts, entertainment and traditional college fun they
could want. We offer hundreds of events annually, action-packed athletics, and an
easy-to-navigate city teeming with stages, shopping and great eats.
Part of what makes WSU a fantastic choice for students is the city we call home! Wichita
is just the right size: Big enough for great nightlife, concerts and fun, but still
with a low cost of living and friendly Midwestern feel.
Funding your high-quality WSU education is easy. Just get admitted, and if eligible
you'll get an automatic scholarship offer. You could also qualify for the more than
$100 million in other scholarships and financial aid awarded annually.
We've got you covered on housing. WSU's three on-campus housing facilities are all
under 10 years old. Plus, for older students, there are tons of housing options within
walking distance of the WSU campus.
