About This School

Allegheny Wesleyan College is a private nonprofit institution located in Salem, Ohio with approximately 54 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $6,740 per year. The graduation rate is 40%.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: at just $6,740/year after aid, this is one of the most affordable private college options you'll find, which matters — but a 40% graduation rate and 57% freshman retention rate mean fewer than 6 in 10 students who start here actually finish. Worth considering only if you're deeply aligned with its Wesleyan Methodist mission and the intimate, 54-student community genuinely appeals to you; otherwise, those completion numbers are a serious red flag worth weighing carefully before committing.
