by our College Data Analytics TeamHome to about 615 undergraduates in 2020, Wiley College is a very small, private college located in Marshall, Texas. This is a great opportunity for those who would thrive in a charming, small-town atmosphere. Should you tire of the campus however, Wiley College offers a “study abroad” program. Please note, some classes/degrees offered by Wiley College can be taken “online” so keep that in mind when reviewing this report.

The Higher Education Act of 1965 established historically black colleges and universities as institutions whose principal mission was the education of African-Americans. Today, the HBCU designation does not necessitate that Wiley College is exclusively or even predominantly African-American (though it currently is). Thanks to integration efforts, there are HBCUs with non-black majorities and non-HBCUs with black majorities. For more information you can review the White House Initiative on Historically Black Colleges and Universities.
Some, but not all, schools with a religious affiliation may require a statement of faith or religious studies component. Contact the school to see what their requirements are.
