Admissions - Tena Lawrence Bio

 

 

 

Having grown up in Jamestown and as a graduate of Jamestown College, I know first-hand what an exceptional place Jamestown College is. I received degrees in Business Administration, History/Political-Science, and Secondary Education before beginning a 25-year business career in Jamestown. Jamestown College prepared me well for a business career, and its liberal arts approach gave me the education needed to transition to a second career when the opportunity arose. I was thrilled when that opportunity was at Jamestown College - a place I love in a town that I love! I feel fortunate to have this opportunity to share all the wonderful things about Jamestown College with students looking for a place to call home. I have a daughter who is a graduate of Jamestown College and another that is a student here. I think you will like it here in Jamestown!

 

 

Help you decide if Jamestown College is the perfect place to call home while you study for and plan your future. We have a wonderful admission and financial aid staff; they are all waiting to guide you through the process of becoming a Jamestown Jimmie (Not sure what that is? We will explain when you come for a visit!). I am here to help you with whatever you need - questions, directions, or frustrations. Having been a student here and a parent of a student, there are not many things that I haven't dealt with and I welcome the opportunity to help you.

 

 

Come visit! It is hard to describe the feeling you will get here. I felt it, our students feel it, and parents often tell me that they knew when they came for a visit that this was the right place for them. I want you to have that feeling. Ask us lots of questions - after all, this is your future. With our generous scholarships and institutional awards we make a private college affordable. So come and see for yourself - you will find students reaching their goals while making lifelong friendships, faculty doing all they can to help you find your success, and staff devoted to supporting each and every student. I hope to see you on campus soon!
