Introducing the new WQU.org!

Today we’re proud to show-and-tell our new website and brand redesign. We’ve been working on this project for months waiting for the moment to finally share it with you, our community—our students, prospective students, and partners.

You’ve probably already noticed a different look and feel, especially our brand new WQU logo! It now better represents this university: an international community with you at the center. Our goal was for it to look and feel inclusive, cross-cultural, worldly, and modern... just like our students. We hope you agree.

We have expanded the frequently asked questions section and the site is also responsive now supporting many more platforms and devices. We are especially proud to report that it also loads five times faster, helping those with slower connectivity find the answers they need faster.

This is just the beginning. In the coming months we will be expanding our online resources, adding new modules and programs, and offering more career resources.

To stay in the loop and receive updates on WQU, like our Facebook page and check back on our blog for more updates. 

Please explore the new site! We are always looking feedback and constructive suggestions on how to improve. If you have ideas, please reach out to us at admin@wqu.org.

Cheers,

Daphne Kis CEO, WorldQuant University
