Hello, my name is Tess Hanson De Pretis and I am going to be your Admissions Counselor! I am so excited to hear that you are interested in attending Wheaton College and I cannot wait to embark on this journey alongside you.
The Lord led me to Wheaton in January 2018, and I graduated in 2021 with a degree in Anthropology. While on campus, I was able to participate in the Transfer Orientation Committee (I was a transfer student myself), Archaeology Cabinet, Feminist Club Cabinet, and I served as a Class Chaplain. Through programs offered at Wheaton, I had the opportunity to take summer classes in northern Wisconsin and to excavate Middle Bronze Age material culture in Israel/Palestine (ask me about other study abroad opportunities through the college –there is an extensive list).
