Webber International University is a small, private business university with approximately 650 students. WIU is regionally and internationally accredited and was ranked as a “Best in the Southeast” by the Princeton Review.
Webber International University educates students in preparation for careers in the worldwide business environment. Emphasis is placed on development of skills in administration and strategic planning, oral and written communication, applied modern business practices, personal growth, entrepreneurship and professional development. The University offers educational programs at the associate, bachelor and master levels exclusively in areas of business.
International students give a very special element to the college experience at Webber. Webber has students from a variety of countries around the world: England, France, Germany, Mongolia, Sweden, Australia, Venezuela, Argentina, Trinidad, and Jamaica, just to name a few. As Webber’s world grows smaller, all students get to experience the cultures and ideas of people from the four corners of the earth. This experience gives students a real advantage as they go out to the workplace after finishing their degrees.

Residence Halls
The Residence Halls are located in close proximity to each other, and are on beautiful Crooked Lake. Thus, students can co-relate with each other easily and experience residential life to the fullest.
Webber has two halls, Grace and Camilla Halls, and another one that is in construction. The halls are all female and all male. Each dorm is equipped with cable television, Ethernet, microwave and refrigerator. There is also ample storage space for personal items and a desk provided for each student. Laundry facilities and vending machines are also provided. Residence halls are all smoke free.
Activities
One of the best ways to experience college life is to get involved. At Webber International University, you have countless opportunities to interact with people who have the same interests and passions as you do. You can even try something new!
Make new friends through the awesome and fun activities Webber provides. You'll never go bored with the variety of activities planned for students every year. Student organizations like the Campus Activities Board (CAB) sponsor numerous cultural, educational and social programs. Check out guest lecturers, comedians, movie nights, traditional college parties and road trips throughout the year.
Since there are no classes at WIU on Wednesdays that means there are really 2 “Friday” nights every week! On many a Tuesday night there is a big party on Campus with a DJ playing popular music. This is always a fun night with lots of dancing and socializing. For Bowling Fans there is Bowling Night – free – from 10 pm to 2 am at the Cypress Bowling Alley in one of our neighboring towns, Winter Haven.
Some other activities are Wacky Wednesday where students can “Slip & Slide, “Dunk a Professor,” and other summer fun events. Weekly Movie Nights and Movie Nights Under the Stars, where pizza and sodas are available are always very popular. Pictionary…Glow Parties…Halo Tournaments, Karaoke Idol are just a few of the many events put on by Student Life each semester at Webber for the enjoyment of our student body.
Webber is located less than an hour from 2 major airports – Orlando International and Tampa International, and less than an hour from the cities of Orlando and Tampa.
