John Wesley Merging into Piedmont International

Two Christian colleges in North Carolina, Piedmont International University and John Wesley University, plan to merge next year -- three years after Piedmont completed another merger.  Piedmont, located in Winston-Salem, enrolls 750 students, the Winston-Salem Journal reported. John Wesley, located in High Point, enrolls 150. Administrators consider the two institutions the largest evangelical universities in the north-central part of North Carolina.
