The undergraduate and graduate Business programs are accredited by the International Assembly for Collegiate Business Education (IACBE).

Faith
Waynesburg helps students develop academically and professionally on the foundation of faith. Students may choose to practice their faith every Tuesday at Chapel, in their classes, in a prayer or Bible study group, through their artwork, while serving others, or in their own individual way. Students also have opportunities to discuss theory and application of faith as it relates to their future professions.

Service
While guiding students in the development of specific skills and talents, Waynesburg also provides opportunities to apply and sharpen them through service. In fact, students, faculty, and staff spend 50,000 hours each year working to improve the lives of others.

Business students serve others with their business acumen by performing free tax assistance for local families, developing work schedules and managing sales for a seasonal local nonprofit retailer, or by creating their own service projects.

Affordability
More than 90% of students receive some form of financial aid each year, and tuition, room, and board is $10,000 below the national average for a private, nonprofit four-year college. Between Achievement Awards and additional scholarships; federal, state, and institutional grants; and a number of work-study opportunities, you will find that Waynesburg University is quite affordable.

Outcomes
Ninety-eight percent of 2015 graduates reported working full time or attending graduate school within one year of graduation.

The Career Services Center works to ensure the successful transition from college to career for each student. The Center assists with everything from résumé composition to interviewing skills and offers job and internship fairs, one-on-one career coaching, mock interviews, and employer networking opportunities.
