SOUTHERN WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY

'Southern Wesleyan University' is a four-year Christian college in the town of Central, South Carolina. The university was founded in 1906, by what is now The Wesleyan Church, as a result of a prayer meeting in a field on what is now the campus. It is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools.
Southern Wesleyan University prepares students for leadership and graduate study in such fields as religion, education, music, business, medicine, law and a variety of civic and social service professions. Southern Wesleyan offers 35 major areas of study for undergraduates and graduate degrees in the areas of business, education and ministry. It has recently added majors in forensic science, forensic computer science, communication, management of information technology and human services. The university serves more than 2,700 students and has regional learning centers across South Carolina, in locations such as Greenville, Columbia, Charleston and North Augusta.
The university was previously known as Central Wesleyan College, and, before that, as Wesleyan Methodist College.
The university has several athletic teams. Two of those, men's soccer and women's basketball, have traveled to other countries on short-term mission trips. In 2007, women's basketball and men's baseball teams won their respective National Christian College Athletic Association national championships.
