Caribbean Wesleyan College

The Caribbean Wesleyan College (CWC) was established in 1996 after a merger of two Wesleyan Colleges in Jamaica and Barbados. Our history spans many decades, and we are noted for providing trained pastors, ministry workers, and scholars for the Wesleyan Church and other Holiness churches.

At CWC the mission is to prepare students for holistic Christian services – witnessing, discipline and church governance, by exemplary biblical Wesleyan-Arminian doctrine. We ensure that students, on departure from our institution, are capable of functioning as balanced Christian workers. They will seek to follow the will of the Lord, Jesus Christ and we guarantee that CWC graduates are grounded in biblical truth and are experienced Christians. All our students possess basic knowledge in the humanities and natural and social sciences. Our graduates understand and meet spiritual, legal and social requirements.

In the CWC environment, our students are trained alongside international staff and students. They preach, lead worship services and listen to others in our chapel. Students share meal times in comfortable dining facilities and their dormitories provide a restful haven.

We make special exceptions to meet varying students’ needs. In this regard, we offer training opportunities for our mature students. Students can take a single course before they decide on how to proceed. Enrolled students may audit a course, this is may be done in two ways. Firstly, students can attend a class and not take the final exams and in this way they do not earn any course credits. Then, the second option is the short-term intensive course where the student will earn course credits.

Moreover, there is access to financial aid and special payment plans. An online option exists for some courses. For international students, the CWC will also assist them to obtain all relevant documentations.

The Caribbean Wesleyan College is registered with the University Council of Jamaica (UCJ) and fully accredited by the Caribbean Evangelical Theological Association (CETA).
