UNIVERSITY PROFILE Jacksonville University is proud of its heritage as a private, independent institution. The University offers a balanced approach to coeducational higher education, combining the best attributes of the liberal arts and sciences tradition and professional studies. As a result, students are equipped not only to succeed in meaningful careers and advanced studies at the graduate level, but also to function as well-educated, well-rounded citizens in our modern society. This balanced educational preparation further enables students to respond confidently to changing and evolving career and personal opportunities. Jacksonville University offers a rigorous curriculum that addresses the diverse interests, curiosities, and educational needs of the total person. While its Core Curriculum exposes students to the broad spectrum of human thought and accomplishment, specialization for specific career or life pursuits is provided within the major. The College of Arts and Sciences, the Davis College of Business, the College of Fine Arts, the School of Nursing, and the School of Education provide JU’s traditional undergraduate programs. Offering more than 40 majors, the University confers the Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Business Administration, Bachelor of Science, Bachelor of Science in Nursing, Bachelor of Fine Arts, Bachelor of Music and Bachelor of Music Education. Pre-professional studies are available for students interested in dentistry, law, medicine, pharmacy and veterinary medicine. The Aeronautics Program is offered in cooperation with Delta Connection Academy, owned and operated by Delta Air Lines.
Jacksonville University maintains a legacy of service to the community. It has been an ardent supporter and provider of cultural and educational programs that enhance the quality of life for Jacksonville and Florida’s First Coast citizens. Recognizing the educational needs of working adults, JU offers baccalaureate and masters-level programs during evening hours, on weekends, at off campus locations, and in accelerated formats that assist nontraditional students to continue or complete college degrees.
The Accelerated Degree Program administers degree completion options for nontraditional and adult learners. The eight-week accelerated class options offer intensive studies during weekday evenings and on weekends. Students enrolled may earn Bachelor of Science (BS) degree in Social Sciences or a Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) degree with majors in Business Administration, Marketing and/or Management.
Graduate programs in business, education, math and nursing provide the community with highly skilled professionals who are instrumental in strengthening the local economy, improving the quality of elementary and secondary education, and meeting the health care requirements of our citizens. School of Education graduate programs include a 5 year program leading to a Masters of Education (B.A/M.Ed.) in Elementary Education, as well as a Master of Education in Leadership and Learning (M.Ed.) program with three tracks; Instructional Leadership and Organizational Development, Sport Management and Leadership, and Educational Leadership. The School of Nursing offers an R.N.-M.S.N. program, along with a Master of Nursing (M.S.N.) with concentrations in Nursing Education, Nursing Administration, Family Nurse Practitioner, Family Nurse Practitioner
9
with Emergency Nurse Specialization and a joint program with the Davis College of Business: Masters of Nursing & Business Administration. The College of Arts and Sciences offers a Masters of Arts (M.A.) in Mathematics. The Davis College of Business has a Master of Business Administration (M.B.A) offered in three formats; the daytime Accelerated M.B.A. program, the evening Flex M.B.A. program and the Executive M.B.A. program.
SPECIAL ACADEMIC OPPORTUNITIES Jacksonville University and the Florida Coastal School of Law (FCSL) have entered into an agreement that will allow selected JU students who have met the requirements, to enter FCSL after completing only three years of undergraduate study at JU. Participants will earn both a baccalaureate degree and a J.D. under the 6-year program. Dual-degree engineering programs are offered in cooperation with Columbia University, Georgia Institute of Technology, the University of Florida, the University of Miami, Washington University in St. Louis, Mercer University, and Stevens Institute of Technology. The strength of our programs is a function of the University’s nationally recognized faculty, some of whom have been honored by such organizations as the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, the Council for the Advancement and Support of Education, the Pew National Fellowship Program, the Fulbright Scholarship Program, and the American Council on Education. Each of Jacksonville University’s 181 full-time professors is committed to classroom teaching; JU does not use graduate or teaching assistants in its classrooms. Comfortably sized classes assure students of individual attention and meaningful interaction with professors and classmates. JU’s average class size is 16, and the University has a student-to-faculty ratio of 14:1. Although most students are from Florida and the southeastern and northeastern United States, the University embraces cultural diversity. Included among its student population are persons from 45 states, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and 50 foreign countries. In the traditional undergraduate program, women comprise 51 percent of JU’s student body; men, 49 percent. Approximately 93 percent of JU’s traditional undergraduate student body attends full-time and more than half live on campus.

HISTORY Jacksonville University is an especially impressive educational center when one considers its modest beginnings. Created to “furnish an opportunity for citizens of Jacksonville and vicinity to obtain a standard collegiate education without leaving the city’’ and “to fill the need for a center of culture and cultural background for Jacksonville,’’ William J. Porter University opened its doors in 1934 as a two-year community college. Within a year, the institution was renamed Jacksonville Junior College to identify more accurately its ties to the city and its two-year program. The College’s first ten years were a continuing struggle for survival; but, by 1944, the first full-time president and faculty had moved into the Kay Mansion in Jacksonville’s fashionable Riverside area. With returning World War II veterans swelling, the student ranks and projected enrollments increasing, plans for another move were soon underway. In 1947, the Board of Trustees commissioned a master plan for development of a new campus in suburban Arlington. In 1950, the College relocated to its present site in its first permanent structure, the Founders Building. With the decision to expand to a four-year program, Jacksonville Junior College became Jacksonville University in 1956. Shortly thereafter, the Jacksonville College of Music merged with the University. In 1961, JU was accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, and the College of Music was renamed the College of Fine Arts due to the addition of programs in drama, art and fine arts. In May 1967, the College of Arts and Sciences was established by combining the academic divisions of business administration, education, humanities, science and mathematics, and social sciences. The Davis College of Business opened in 1979. Graduate studies leading to the Master of Business Administration degree were initiated the following year. In February 1982, the nursing program was approved by the Florida Board of Nursing. Today, it offers The Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) and Emergency Nurse Practitioner (ENP) sub specialization program, which is the sixth of its kind in the United States and the first in Florida. In 1983, JU established its Division of Aeronautics. The division now offers careers in aviation management or aviation management and flight operations. The Davis College of Business added the Executive MBA program in 1984. An adult studies program was established in 1986 as the College of Weekend Studies under the administrative supervision of the Davis College of Business. This program is now the JU Accelerated Degree Program.
11
The School of Orthodontics was established in 2003. The two year Advanced Education Program in Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics received full accreditation without reporting requirements from the Commission on Dental Accreditation in August of 2006. Upon successful completion of the program graduates receive a C.A.G.S., Certificate in Advanced Graduate Studies. Students may also opt for a combined program with the Davis College of Business which leads to being awarded an M.B.A. in addition to the C.A.G.S after an additional year of specialized study. LOGO, SEAL, SYMBOL & ICON The majestic oak trees that grace the JU campus inspired its seal. A universal representation, the oak tree embraces both Jacksonville University’s spirit and commitment to the future, as well as its history, heritage and values. As a symbol, the oak is significant in many cultures, representing strength, courage and truth. For ancient Germanic tribes, oak groves were places of worship. In Greek and Roman mythology, the tree was sacred to the oak god Zeus/Jupiter and to his marriage to the oak goddess Hera/Juno. In Celtic legend, the oak was considered a mystical tree. As a Christian symbol, the oak is associated with steadfast faith and virtue. In addition, the oak is a symbol of great achievement, accomplished through patience, dedication, perseverance and commitment to the truth. The oak tree now is the centerpiece of the University seal. The oak leaf depicted in our symbol and icon was designed by gathering actual oak leaves from the campus, scanning them into a computer, and creating a composite JU oak leaf. The oak tree employed in the seal was inspired by these same trees in their mature state and replicates the JU leaf design.

INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS JU's Mascot Dunk'n the Dolphin roams the sidelines of JU home games delighting children and inspiring team spirit. Yet, no matter how popular the porpoise-costumed cheerleader becomes, there's one honor he lacks - Jacksonville University's official mascot. That title belongs to an aging, but playful marine mammal who has entertained crowds for half a century at Marineland of Florida. Nellie the Dolphin, who turned 57 years old on Feb. 27, 2010, was awarded that distinction and made an honorary JU Dolphin more than three decades ago by then president Dr. Robert Spiro. JU Athletics The JU sports teams participate in NCAA Division I in the Atlantic Sun Conference, except for football, in which its team competes in the Division I FCS Pioneer Football League, and rowing, which competes exclusively in NCAA Division I competitions across the country. Men’s and women’s lacrosse programs were added during the 2009-2010 academic year. Men’s lacrosse competes in the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference and women’s lacrosse competes in the National Lacrosse Conference. Men’s Sports: Baseball, Basketball, Cross Country, Football, Golf, Lacrosse, Rowing, Soccer and Tennis Women’s Sports: Basketball, Cross Country, Golf, Lacrosse, Rowing, Soccer, Softball, Tennis, Track & Field and Volleyball Atlantic Sun Conference Pioneer Football League Jacksonville University (Jacksonville, FL) Jacksonville University (Jacksonville, FL) Bellmount University (Nashville, TN) Butler University (Indianapolis, IN) Campbell University (Buies Creek, NC) Campbell University (Buies Creek, NC) East Tennessee State Univ.

NEW STUDENT ADMISSIONS
New undergraduate students are considered for admission at the beginning of the fall and spring semesters and the summer sessions. Applications for the fall semester should be received by March 1. Applications received after this date, are considered as long as space is available. For freshmen and transfer applicants, the application for admission and all supporting papers should be submitted at least 30 days before the date of registration for any term to allow adequate time for processing. International applicants should submit the application and all supporting papers no later than July 15 for the fall semester, November 15th for the spring semester and March 15 for the summer semester. In addition, JU offers degree completion programs specifically designed for persons who are working or who, for other reasons, are unable to attend classes during the weekday. The Accelerated Degree Program offers undergraduate degree options for nontraditional, adult students in an accelerated format. Freshmen applicants must submit: 1. A completed application; 2. A $30.00 nonrefundable application fee; 3. Official copy (ies) of secondary school transcript(s); 4. SAT or ACT test results Additionally, for prospective fine-arts majors, art students must undergo a portfolio review and dance, music, and theatre students must audition. Applicants who have not earned a high school diploma, but who have received a high school equivalency diploma or certificate from their state by satisfactory performance on American Council of Education’s Tests of Educational Development (GED), must submit a copy of their GED certificate along with the application for admission. Every freshman applicant must submit scores on the Scholastic Assessment Test (SAT) of the College Entrance Examination Board or the American College Test (ACT) of the American College Testing Program. Information regarding these tests may be obtained from a high school guidance office or by contacting the appropriate testing agency – http://www.collegeboard.com or http://www.act.org. The applicant must ensure that the secondary school record, standardized test scores, final academic transcript(s), and any statements and recommendations are sent to the Office of Admission. Admission to Jacksonville University is competitive. JU seeks students from a variety of backgrounds with strong academic preparation who can contribute to and benefit from the University’s many academic and co-curricular programs. JU seeks to admit students who have the background necessary to be successful academically. The most important factors in the admission decision are the academic record and standardized test scores. The student’s academic record carries more weight than standardized test scores. Jacksonville University considers courses taken (special consideration is given for math and foreign language course work over and above stated requirements), grades attained, and class standing as parts of a student’s academic
27
record. Other factors, which may be considered, include recommendations, leadership potential, extracurricular and service-related activities, special talents, relationship with the University, and the ability to contribute positively to the campus community. The Admission Review Committee will review students who do not meet our normal standards for admission. Interviews are strongly encouraged during an arranged visit to the campus. To be considered for admission, students must satisfactorily complete, or be in the process of completing, a standard college preparatory program. Students applying for admission must complete the following minimum requirements: 1. Four units of English; 2. Three units of mathematics (algebra I and II and geometry); 3. Three units of natural science (preferably, 2 units as lab sciences); 4. Three units of social sciences (history, civics/government, political science, psychology, sociology, economics) TRANSFER STUDENT APPLICATION AND ADMISSION Jacksonville University encourages applications from students who have attended regionally accredited colleges and universities. Each year, approximately one-third of the entering class is comprised of transfer students. To be considered for admission as a transfer student, the student must have completed the equivalent of at least one semester of academic work following graduation from high school. Students who are concurrently enrolled in high school and college are not considered to be transfer students.
Graduates of a regionally-accredited community college or university who earned an Associate of Arts (AA) degree or Baccalaureate degree (in the case of a second-degree seeking student) should contact the JU Office of Admission for details about the transfer of college credit. In most cases, a regionally-accredited AA or Baccalaureate curriculum satisfies JU’s general education, or core curriculum, requirements.
Transfer applicants must submit to the Office of Admission: 1. A completed application 2. A $30.00 nonrefundable application fee 3. Official transcripts from all colleges and universities attended, regardless of grade point average earned or number of credits completed 4. Official high school transcripts if less than 24 semester hours or 36-quarter hours of college credit has been earned and test scores; Letter(s) of recommendation may be submitted, but are not required. Additionally, for prospective fine-arts majors, art students must undergo a portfolio review and dance and music students must audition. Information on these programs may be found under the appropriate department in the College of Fine Arts. Concealment of previous course work completed at a college or university, whether intentional or not, is cause for cancellation of admission and registration.

STUDENT FINANCIAL AID
ESTIMATED COST OF ATTENDANCE COA is based on full-time enrollment in 12 or more credits per semester and is made up of both direct and indirect educational costs. Direct costs are billed by the university and must be paid before the start of classes each semester. Tuition and on-campus room and board are examples of direct costs. Indirect costs are commuter housing and meals, books, personal expenses, and transportation. Although you will not receive a bill for indirect costs, you still need to plan for them. The most commonly overlooked indirect cost is books. Cost of attendance is an estimate – your actual costs may be more or less than the COA. Aviation Operations majors should refer to the separate listing of flight-related expenses when budgeting for educational costs.
The following is the estimated COA for 2010-11 (Fall and Spring combined):
CAMPUS RESIDENT COMMUTER
Tuition $26,600 Tuition $26,600 Room (Oak Hall) $5,560 Housing and Meals $10,627 Board (15 meals) $3,760 Books $800 Books $800 Personal Expenses $1,178 Personal Expenses $1,178 Transportation $1,732 Transportation $1,732 Total COA $39,630 Total COA $40,937
STUDENT HEALTH INSURANCE: All full-time Traditional Undergraduate students enrolled for a minimum of twelve (12) credit hours will automatically be enrolled in the Jacksonville University Student Medical Insurance Plan; the premium for coverage is added to the tuition billing upon registration. Coverage can be waived if evidence of other comparable coverage is presented prior to the waiver deadline. Waiver forms are available online. The Student Health Insurance cost for 2010-11 is $570.

The Davis College of Business prepares students to enter the dynamic and complex world of business. The philosophy that guides the educational process is to provide the working knowledge necessary for success in an organization, and to integrate this knowledge from the various disciplines of accounting, finance, economics, marketing, and management into a meaningful whole. Theory is combined with a practical and pragmatic approach to the effective and efficient utilization of resources. Careful attention is given to the increasing importance of resource scarcity and an understanding of the global environment in which the business community operates.
The mission of the Davis College of Business is to deliver high quality business programs that emphasize leadership development, foster global and multicultural awareness, and build upon a foundation in the liberal arts and humanities. The College will create and disseminate applied business knowledge that contributes to the advancement of business education and practice.
College of Fine Arts The College of Fine Arts is dedicated to giving to each individual student the instruction and guidance needed to realize his or her full artistic and intellectual potential, and provide each student with ongoing opportunities for performance and exhibition, as well as personal attention. The College has three divisions: the Division of Visual Arts; the Division of Music; and the Division of Theatre and Dance.
