ADDITIONAL INFORMATION | |||||
East-West University was founded in 1980 with the mission of providing
quality, affordable, multi-cultural, and forward-looking higher
education to Chicago and the world. The institution has grown and
prospered over the years, from a noble idea to a significant institution
of higher learning accommodating nearly 1200 students. The University
maintains a unique place among institutions of higher learning in
Chicago and the region. East-West has repeatedly been cited as having
the lowest tuition among private schools in the Chicago area, making a
higher education with personal attention more accessible. East-West has
one of the highest percentages of international students of any
baccalaureate school in the nation; it is the only majority-minority
four year college in the state of Illinois; the faculty and staff is
among the most diverse of any institution of higher learning in the
nation; its graduates have spread throughout the world making a
difference; and its close-knit, family atmosphere has been successful in
helping students to meet the challenges of making it through college to
graduation. The majority of East-West University students may come from
minority communities, but many non-minority students enjoy attending
East-West University for the unique perspective it provides. Students
interested in social work, human resources, community activism,
politics, urban planning, government, and other disciplines gain great
insights, engage in valuable dialog, make lifelong friends, and are
welcomed and valued at East-West University. To attend East-West University is to become an honorary citizen of the world; to discover a rich, diverse and international perspective on possibilities; to expand horizons to encompass the globe; and to make lifelong friends from a variety of backgrounds and perspectives. |
