JPU Student Testimonials

"As we grow in life, everyone needs to find growth in their career. Currently, as the only military student, I found a school that actually understands my needs, JPU, not just a school, but a place where learning goes back to its fundamental roots. The faculty is composed of highly respected individuals who dedicated their lives to finding ways for goodness.  They are not just teaching, they are mentors in the field where the utmost dedication and passion is required to achieve excellence."

Nathan
School of Physics and Radiological Sciences

"I was taught and mentored by faculty members who are outstanding teachers with careful attenton to creating a supportive learning environment that has each student's best interests at heart.  The program's nutrition track filled the gap in my knowledge base, and I graduated from the program more confident in my ability to both recommend and help facilitate nutrition and other lifestyle behavior changes."
