We calculated a Salary Score for each of Jacksonville State University's programs by comparing program-specific median alumni earnings to median alumni earnings for the same program across all schools that provide this data. This way, students can compare the relative salary strength of a specific major at Jacksonville State University to the same major at other schools. A school's overall score by level is based on the school's by-program performance weighted by student enrollment in each program.

Please DO NOT go to JSU if you are an older returning student, online or in Person. I returned after 36 years and found the same rules do not apply to ALL returning students. In the recent years, changes to policies help those who are returning from a more recent departure date, but the rules were not designed to include ALL returning students with older departure dates.

Jacksonville State University provided me with everything I needed to obtain a bachelors degree in Nursing. The program was online and only required me to come to campus a few times for testing. I was able to maintain a balance in work, family and school life. If I had to go back to do my bachelors degree I would recommend looking into their program.
