Juan Osorio ’17 | M.B.A. in International Business

“The MBA program pushed me to the next level...I learned to collaborate with different levels of professionals, how to take a step back, make sound decisions and understand the impact of those decisions. . . most importantly, it provided me with the confidence and ability to overcome challenges I will encounter in my career.”

Paige Heffron ’18 | M.S. in School Counseling, Marriage & Family Therapy

“I learned how to think systemically. With the variety of classes JBU offered me and the support and wisdom of the professors, I felt so prepared coming into my role as a school counselor… Being faith-based and having professors and classmates pray for you was part of the best experience at JBU.”

Tabitha McFadden ’05 | M.S. in Leadership & Ethics

"I really consider JBU to have been a launch pad for my growth and development. I experienced the freedom to explore and really establish my faith for myself.

Some of those early experiences have shaped my perspectives and helped me to develop into the person I am today."
