University of Jamestown (Jamestown, ND)
The University of Jamestown is a private, coeducational, liberal arts college founded by the Presbyterian Church in 1883. Located in the town of Jamestown, about 100 miles east of the state capital, Bismark, the school was known as Jamestown College until August 2013, when it adopted its present name.
Jamestown sits on a 110-acre urban campus; the enrollment currently stands at 967 souls. The college currently offers 40 fields of study, and all students are guaranteed to have the courses available that are necessary for them to graduate in four years. All students also receive an internship during their time at Jamestown.
The school adheres to a program they call “Journey to Success.” This fourfold program requires students to look inwardly, outwardly, beyond, and forward. Students look inwardly by examining their strengths, interests, and weaknesses. They look outwardly to see how they can use their talents to help others and reach goals. They look beyond to learn about other people and cultures. And they look forward to plan for life beyond college. These lessons are purposely woven into each major and all the core curriculum to prepare students to be part of a global community.
The University of Jamestown is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission, the North Central Association.
