Career

JSU has created innovative policies and programs that give our employees the freedom to focus on their families while advancing their careers. Our policies also recognize the changing definitions of family - from blended families, adopted families, and same-sex domestic partnerships, to the demands of caring for aging parents.

At Jacksonville State University we realize that there is more to college life than attending classes and studying. We encourage student involvement through a wide range of diverse campus organizations. We celebrate the uniqueness of what each group contributes to our campus.

Housing services

We want you to make Gamecock housing your home away from home, and enhance your community through joining its goals and purposes. We hope this year will be full of personal growth and educational accomplishments. Please know that our residence life staff is here to assist and support you in the community!

On-campus living provides opportunities for involvement, activities, and knowledge. We believe that learning does not end in the classroom but is enhanced by interacting with a diverse group of residents, participating in leadership opportunities, and engaging in life-learning activities.
