Since its founding, Wichita State University has grown from a small Christian college to a large state university. While they feature the most diverse student body in Kansas, location is what separates this school from other Kansas colleges. As the only metropolitan institution in the state, Wichita State University combines a traditional college atmosphere with the many possibilities offered by the state's biggest city.

The college promotes itself as anything but a "typical" university encounter and stresses the many opportunities they offer that allow students the luxury of creating their college experience exactly the way they want it. Wichita State University provides an educational experience without limits with a classical education that meets the modern world.

At Wichita State University, students are offered a well-rounded education that changes as necessary to reflect the society around it while still maintaining an edge. Home to the state's largest cooperative education program, the institution's unique partnership with the city it inhabits give students endless opportunities for on-the-job experience.
