Wesleyan College, located in Macon, Georgia, approximately 85 miles southeast of Atlanta, holds the distinction of being the first college in the world chartered to grant degrees to women (1836). The 200-acre suburban campus features a mix of historic antebellum and modern buildings, centered around a core of Greek Revival architecture and mature landscapes. Operating as a private liberal arts institution, the college maintains selective admission standards and continues its tradition as a women's undergraduate college while offering co-educational graduate programs. The college is known for its programs in business, nursing, psychology, and education, with all undergraduate students residing in on-campus housing during their first three years. Wesleyan participates in NCAA Division III athletics as the Wolves, competing primarily in the USA South Athletic Conference.
