Transformation begins with a single step.
First, it begins with knowing that you're ready for your life to unfold in compelling and exciting ways. By applying — and being accepted — to George Williams College of Aurora University, you have intentionally set into motion the transformative power of learning.

Here are a few things for you to know about us:

Our Students
Like you, our students are motivated knowledge seekers who want to apply what they are learning to real life. Between our two campuses in Aurora, Illinois, and on the shores of Geneva Lake in Williams Bay, Wisconsin, we have more than 4,000 students.

Our Faculty
With a average 10:1 student-faculty ratio, you'll develop lasting relationships with your professors — mentors who are expert teachers and award-winning scholars. You'll learn from dedicated, accessible faculty members who put teaching first — experts who are compassionate, supportive people committed to your success.

Our Facilities
The Winston Paul Educational Center houses classrooms, meeting rooms, academic offices and a computer lab open to all students. Meyer Lodge has academic offices, classrooms and the Student Resource Center where students can go for a host of free services including tutoring, writing assistance and review sessions. The Beasley Campus Center is where students congregate for dining services, a cup of coffee or to enjoy the view from the beautiful outdoor patio. Students are also welcome to enjoy the benefits of GWC's magnificent lakefront facilities with private beach and pier, and 18-hole golf course.

Next Steps
Now that you've been accepted to George Williams College, it's time to:

• Visit campus: If you haven't done so already, it's never too late to schedule a visit. 
• Register for classes: After you are admitted, your academic adviser will work with you to arrange the appropriate course schedule.
• Reserve your room: If you are interested in on-campus housing, you must complete a housing contract and make a housing deposit.
• Plan your finances: The Office of Admission and Financial Aid will help you navigate the financial aid process. Be sure to complete the FAFSA.

If you have questions or concerns, we're just a phone call or e-mail away. Please contact the Office of Admission at 262-245-8564 or gwcadmission@aurora.edu. We'll do all we can to assist you — or put you in touch with someone who can help.
