University Attributes

Some have called Jamestown College the 'Ivy League of the Region,' not only because of the stunning beauty of the campus, but also because Jamestown College offers many of the advantages of a large university (quality and variety of programs and courses) in a small college setting.

* With a full-time enrollment of about 1,100 students, Jamestown College offers a learning atmosphere in which students and faculty come to know one another as individuals, not merely as names on seating charts or office doors.
* Faculty and staff take a genuine interest in students. Those relationships develop as they work closely with you on college projects, join you for lunch in the cafeteria, invite you to dinner at their homes, or just take time to chat after class.
* Founded in 1883, Jamestown College is the first independent college in North Dakota. It has a tradition that is rich in history but also in very significant accomplishments.
* Jamestown College has led the way for other colleges and universities in this part of the country by introducing new programs and opportunities for students that were 'ahead of their time.' For example, the college was the first institution in North Dakota to offer four-year degree programs in teacher education and nursing.
* Jamestown College is accredited by several major regional and national accrediting organizations, but its striving for academic excellence far exceeds the minimum standards. Its alumni have distinguished themselves and brought honor to the college through their excellent records in graduate and professional schools, as well as in their successes in a variety of careers.
