In-Person, Undergraduate Student

This is for undergraduate students (including incoming freshmen, transfer students, and international students) interested in earning their bachelor’s degree by attending classes on campus.

Online, Undergraduate Student

You are considered an online undergraduate student if you, at minimum, graduated from an accredited high school or earned your GED, and are interested in earning your bachelor’s degree from home.

Graduate Student

You are classified as a graduate student if you’ve earned a bachelor’s degree or higher from an accredited college and are interested in earning your master’s or doctoral degree.

Part-Time, Non-Degree Seeking Student

You are classified as a part-time, non-degree seeking student if you’re taking college courses for credit without pursuing a formal degree—often for personal enrichment, professional development, or future transfer.

Dual Credit Student

This is for students that are currently in high school and are interested in enrolling in college-level courses that allow you to earn both high school and college credit at the same time.

Unmatched Support

We’re overachievers. Especially when it comes to supporting our students. With our WeCare program, dedicated faculty advisors, mental health counselors, a writing center, and more, we have the resources you need to succeed.

Transparent Pricing

We strive to make UJ accessible to every student who values a private, liberal arts education. We give out $10 million a year in scholarships and have a Financial Aid Office dedicated to maximizing the amount of aid you can receive.

No ACT scores? No problem.

We believe in evaluating students who apply to UJ based on their whole person, not just test scores. We encourage all interested students to apply. Share your story. Share your spark. And show us why UJ is the right place for you.
