One of the Best Career Centers in the Nation is Right Here in Salem
At Willamette, career development is central to the student experience. Our new $2 million Career Center puts job-readiness into everyday campus life. Real advising. Real connections and networking. Real results. Our students are landing internships early, building skills, and walking into graduation with job offers in hand.
So We Put Ours in the Center of It All
From day one, students have access to career coaches, employer meetups, and private interview rooms. Not after graduation. Not their junior year. Now. Sixty percent of our students complete internships and nearly all engage with career services.
We Make Choosing a Major Easy
Once you’re admitted to Willamette, you’re in. No extra applications for specific majors. No capped seats. No “try again next semester.” Pick any major you want and dive right in.
Study Without the Red Tape
At many big state schools, you apply to the university and then have to apply again for your major. At Willamette, you’ll have access to every major from day one. Explore 50+ programs, stack a minor (or two or three), build an interdisciplinary combo, or pivot when you find your thing. Small classes and faculty advisors make every path doable.
Attention High School Seniors
At Willamette, we don’t do passive tours and cookie-cutter info sessions. Cardinal & Gold Day is your backstage pass to a university built to help you lead boldly, launch big ideas, and level up faster. Come see how our students turn knowledge into action, and why they graduate faster, lead sooner, and make bigger moves than their peers.
Not Your Average College Visit
No matter your interests, Cardinal & Gold Day puts you in the driver’s seat. Get the scoop on admissions, financial aid, and how to build a great application. Then, take it up a notch with a tour of our high-impact health labs or sit down for an admissions interview. You’ll leave knowing what your future could actually look like here.
Learning and Leading since 1842
