What previous students have to say:

Keri Ledbetter

B.S. Business Administration

"My time at JBU was a great growth opportunity. I feel like education has a way of doing that- but when you get to be in an environment that has a spiritual center, it has a way of making the journey through the program less stressful."

Jonathan Eidson

"...just go for it. Once you get started, there's a lot of momentum that you feel that will help you know this is the good decision for you. If you're ready, don't tiptoe. Jump in."

Kristy Nguyen

"The knowledge that I gained while pursuing my degree at JBU has allowed me to develop the necessary skills for my [professional] role . . . I was able to advance into a higher position within 6 months of graduating."

Head, Heart & Hand

Education at John Brown University has never been merely academic. John Brown Sr., founder and first president of the institution, was committed to a well-rounded philosophy of studies that focused on the holistic development of students.

"Emphasis should be placed equally on the head, heart and hands," Brown said. "If we neglect any of these in our teaching, the result will be an unbalanced person."

Head

John Brown Sr.'s goal from the start was to provide the university he founded with a solid academic core, and throughout his lifetime, he founded multiple schools with this philosophy. Thousands of alumni have been enriched with a quality education at JBU because of John Brown Sr.'s dedication.

Heart

In addition to having academic and vocational opportunities, John Brown Sr. wanted students to be exposed to the Bible for a complete educational experience. With the rich heritage of Brown's faith, the University whose motto is "Christ Over All" continues to stand firm in the ways of the God whom Brown was committed to serving.

Hand

Good, hard work is essential and healthy, Brown believed; thus he wanted his institution to stand apart from ones that thought good education avoid labor. Majors from biology to business to broadcasting place great emphasis on the practical, realistically preparing students today to meet the challenges of tomorrow's workforce.

The future you starts at JBU.

Equip yourself for a successful career and a life of purpose.
