Student Services

Jubilee University offers a variety of student services and activities in line with its mission to support the needs of students. Among others, we provide the following services to foster holistic student development:

Weekly Live Chapel

Chapel assists in the spiritual development of students' Christian character: spirit, mind, and body. As a vital activity for which the University community meets regularly, Chapel contributes significantly to the spiritual development for students. Consequently, Chapel is viewed as an integral part of the Jubilee experience and all students are required to attend, barring extenuating circumstances.

Academic Advising

Academic advising is an on-going, intentional, educational partnership dedicated to student academic success. After being admitted to the University, students will be assigned to an academic advisor. Whenever possible, students are assigned additional advisors in the area of study in which the students have expressed an interest. The role of these advisors is to guide course selection and serve as a resource with regard to the university’s policies and procedures. Jubilee values the spiritual and academic growth that may develop from healthy student-advisor relationships. Thus, students are encouraged to communicate with their advisors throughout their Jubilee careers for advice and assistance in any academic issues. It is to students’ advantage to meet with their academic advisors at least once a quarter and to know their advisors well.

Counseling

Students are encouraged to communicate openly, but respectfully, with all Jubilee University staff members, and to seek spiritual guidance at any time - especially from the Dean of Students, the University Chaplain and the Director of Christian Service. Personal counseling is intended to help students better adjust to their University experience and to provide support for their personal walks of faith. Jubilee University also encourages students to maintain ties with church leaders throughout their studies at Jubilee University, especially for students who attend online. Jubilee University also allows online students to seek counseling services available in their local areas by requesting referrals from our office.

Tutoring

Students who struggling to meet the academic expectations of Jubilee's programs are offered supplementary assistance.

Career/Vocational Services

Advisors and counselors are available to speak with ministry-bound students who seek advice for careers after graduation. Jubilee University provides information but is not required or obligated to offer placement services. Students may contact the director of their academic programs for more information.

Digital Orientation

At the start of the fall quarter, all entering students will receive a welcome package available in digital media format, which includes an introduction to Jubilee University and an overview of its curricular and co-curricular programs, general policies, and administrative features. Fall Orientation also provides a chance for students to connect socially with other community members in order to ease the transition into the start of a new academic year.
