Campus Challenge @ IWU

WHAT IS CAMPUS CHALLENGE?

God blesses his creation, and you are no exception! IWU Campus Challenge is a program sponsored by Indiana Wesleyan University to help students who attend a Wesleyan church discover and develop their God-given talents to honor God in a life of service to Him.

Campus Challenge celebrates and recognizes talents in music, art, literature, dance, public speaking, photography, videography, and more by offering this platform to perform and earn scholarships to use toward an education at IWU. 

Wesleyan students can start competing as early as age 12 and continue until age 19. Your last opportunity to compete in Campus Challenge is the summer after your high school graduation.
