If you’re considering an online degree, JWU Online offers a supportive and welcoming environment designed to help you succeed.
We understand that our students often balance studies with work, family and other responsibilities. That’s why JWU Online offers flexible online programs that can be tailored to fit your busy lifestyle. Our 100% online associate, bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral programs were designed for working adults looking to upskill, earn an advanced degree, grow in their current career or make a career switch. Plus, we’ve even introduced a new, Career-Focused 90-91 Credit Curriculum for select majors, designed to meet the needs of students who are eager to enter the workforce quickly and with less financial burden.
Here’s what you need to know about JWU Online before you get started:
Personalized Admissions Support
From day one you’ll work with your dedicated Admissions Associate. They’re here to help you with the application process, obtaining your transcripts, registering for your first class and more.
“What makes JWU unique is that we prioritize students individually. As an admissions associate, I aim to provide adaptable services that cater to the needs of every student. Whether we request transcripts or guide them through the application process, we ensure their enrollment is as smooth as possible and that we optimize their time, as we understand the many responsibilities students juggle outside of school.” – Krystel Acosta, Admissions Associate
Streamlined Application
Applying to JWU Online is designed to be as streamlined as possible. Our application takes as little as 10 minutes to complete, and you don’t need to pay an application fee or submit test scores.
After your application is submitted, your admissions associate will outline next steps, including uploading a government-issued ID, and help you gather any necessary documents including transcripts and letters of recommendation.
We Make the Transfer Process as Seamless as Possible
We accept up to 75% of credits earned from previous institutions, allowing you to maximize the value of your past coursework. Our team will conduct a thorough review of your transcripts to ensure you receive the most credit possible. We also provide a personalized transfer credit evaluation so you know exactly how your credits will apply to your chosen program. Many evaluations are completed within two business days!

Financial Aid and Support
JWU Online offers various options to help make your studies affordable. From scholarships and grants to loans and payment plans, our financial aid team is ready to assist you in finding the best solutions for you. Just like with our dedicated admissions support, your personal financial planner will be with you throughout your academic journey.
“The JWU Online Financial Planning Team understands that paying for college and navigating financial aid can be stressful. We strive to simplify this for the student by being available via phone, email and Zoom meetings. The team responds quickly to inquiries, letting the student know they are important to us. A student sometimes needs a soothing voice just to tell them all will be well. We are that voice for our students.” – Marybeth Dempsey, Financial Planner
Flexible and Accessible Learning Options
JWU Online offers flexible online programs that can be tailored to fit your busy lifestyle – and asynchronous learning means you don’t need to log in for class at a specific time. You can even network before you graduate in our exclusive student group, where you can make meaningful connections with fellow classmates, faculty and staff.
