We have a get-acquainted dinner and an end-of-year picnic. Plus, you and your family can meet often for fun!

Health Insurance for International Population
Wilson College does not sponsor or recommend a specific Health Insurance Company to our international students and scholars and their families. However, International Student Insurance and PGH Global www.pghstudent.com/wilson are companies that have expressed interest in selling policies to Wilson’s International population. You may choose to purchase your health insurance from either of these companies, or any other company of your choice, whether it be in your home country, or here in the United States. However, all students must be covered by a health insurance plan while enrolled at Wilson College.
