ALDERSON BROADDUS STUDENTS – WE ARE HERE FOR YOU.

Wheeling University’s Catholic faith and our mission call us to serve others in our community when they are in need.  All of us at Wheeling University commit to supporting the members of the Alderson Broadus community who are facing uncertainty during this difficult time. 

We are so saddened by the devastating news that Alderson Broaddus’s authorization to award degrees in West Virginia was revoked.  We know you are dealing with a lot of emotion and uncertainty right now.  But rest assured – your education can continue seamlessly at Wheeling University.

We’re, of course, saddened to hear the news of Alderson Broaddus University’s closure—it has been a part of the fabric of West Virginia’s community since 1932.  With that said, now the focus must be to ensure that the goals and aspirations of its current student population can continue on their journey and achieve their goals,” President Ginny Favede

Like Alderson Broaddus, we take great pride in creating a welcoming, accessible, and caring community.  At Wheeling, you will make lifelong connections and be a part of a vibrant campus – a family, really – that will challenge you to find your inner purpose and make your mark in the world beyond.  A place where community is important, values matter, and learning is done with purpose.
