Never a higher calling. Never a more critical time.
The role of private Christ-centered universities is being threatened. The scholarship, mentoring and community built at Jessup has never been more important. In addition to providing quality degree programs for undergrad and grads, Jessup equips future leaders who will work to redeem world culture in their chosen vocations.
