Read What Students Are SayingAll of my classes are engaging. My professors encourage me to study and work hard in order for me to grow as a person and in knowledge.
Kelsey from Minot, ND
Jamestown College has a lot to offer. it's class sizes are small, so it's easy to get to know your professor's, where in larger schools most students are just a number. Visiting the school made me even want to go there more! I got to meet one on one withmy main professor, which made me feel even more comfortable!
Codi from Jamestown, ND
jamestown college is an affordable private school where faculty and staff are dedicated to christian ethics and student success.
Amanda from Jamestown, ND
Jamestown College has a lot to offer for everyone! I know that as an undecided student going into JC I was unsure about what I would learn. But there are so many knowledgeable professors here and they took time to help me find what I was looking for! And they will do the same for everyone! I know that what I've learned here I could not have gained anywhere else!
