ELLISVILLE– As Jones College students finish the spring semester online, college president, Dr. Jesse Smith is encouraging students to continue their education this summer by offering a tuition discount. The summer term tuition will be discounted to $75 per credit hour or 40% off the full tuition price.
“By offering courses at a discounted rate, we hope it encourages students to continue their college plans, even if those plans are being modified by the impact of COVID-19,” said Smith.
The tuition discount is open to anyone who enrolls in summer classes at Jones College. While some programs have a different charge per credit hour, all courses, including vocational, technical and academic courses will be discounted 40% off from the full tuition price. E-books will remain $35 per credit hour.
“For prospective students who are new to Jones College, we offer assistance through our Enrollment Management Office. Each student works with an Admissions Counselor to select the schedule of courses that meets their needs.
