Jacksonville University, the oldest private university in northern Florida and southern Georgia, has become the 13th Florida member of the SAGE Tuition Rewards program. Serving 2,900 undergraduates from all 50 states as well as 51 countries, JU is located on a 250-acre riverfront campus minutes from downtown and a short drive from the ocean.

Nationally ranked for a "positive student life experience," JU offers over 70 majors and minors that combine a strong liberal arts core with pre-professional programs. Popular majors include aviation management, biology, business analytics, cybersecurity, dance, engineering, kinesiology, marine science, music, nursing and psychology. 74% of classes have fewer than 20 students.

JU's ECHO program requires completion, prior to graduation, of either an internship, a faculty-supervised research program, a service learning project or a study-abroad program, ensuring that students have field experience in their major before graduation.

The University offers a choice of 100 student organizations and clubs, including 5 fraternities and 7 sororities. The JU Dolphins compete in 19 NCAA Division 1 varsity sports, primarily in the Athletic Sun Conference.
