For the third consecutive year, U.S. News & World Report has ranked two Texas Wesleyan graduate programs among the best in the nation. The Graduate Program of Nurse Anesthesia and the part-time law program both were listed among “Best Grad Schools” for 2014.

“Our faculty is committed to excellence in the classroom and provide the personal student experience for which Texas Wesleyan is known,” President Frederick G. Slabach said. “Our educators work tirelessly to create programs that reflect the skills that today’s employers expect: critical thinking, analytical reasoning, and practical experience.

“Our graduates and the employers who hire them already know a Texas Wesleyan degree provides tremendous value, but it's nice when external entities validate what we know to be true – that our programs are among the finest in the country."

Texas Wesleyan University is one of more than 600 graduate-program institutions that is surveyed by U.S. News & World Report. Nearly 45 percent of Texas Wesleyan students are enrolled in graduate programs.

In overall university rankings, which are released each fall,Texas Wesleyan has been ranked in the top tier of regional universities in the west for three consecutive years.
