In 2016, Virginia Wesleyan University concluded a comprehensive 10-year master planning process titled "Transformation Now!" This initiative involved external experts who conducted a thorough assessment of the campus infrastructure, including space utilization, parking, and corrective maintenance studies. Together with the formulation of the strategic plan, this evaluation led to the development of a Campus Master Plan that spans from 2016 to 2026.
This Campus Master Plan is a holistic approach that addresses Virginia Wesleyan's academic mission, future campus requirements, and dedication to sustainability in shaping its physical space. It tackles specific questions, challenges, and opportunities encountered by the University as it prepares for the future. The focus extends beyond merely expanding facilities and capital projects; it also underscores Virginia Wesleyan's commitment to sustainable and responsible land use.
Priorities of the Campus Master Plan include:
