YOUR NEXT CHAPTER CAN TAKE YOU SOMEWHERE NEW.

Where you start matters. It just doesn’t have to determine how far you go.
Jewell is creating new opportunities for students from select communities to bring what they know, love and value about home into a coexperience filled with new people, new possibilities and access to Kansas City.
Through a regional scholarship available specifically to students from your area, Jewell can make that next step even more possible.

Discover a different kind of college experience.

You know what life in a major metro feels like. Now imagine pairing that energy and opportunity with a college where classes are personal, professors know their students and you don’t have to compete with thousands of other people for every opportunity.

At Jewell, you’ll find a close-knit residential community with Kansas City just beyond The Hill, giving you a college experience that can feel both bigger and smaller in all the right ways.

Someone from Dallas Fort-Worth has been here, too.

My time at William Jewell College has shaped not only what I want to study, but also how I approach learning and leadership. Through my experiences in research, service and coursework, I’ve learned how to connect what I study to real-world impact. That perspective has prepared me for the next step in my journey toward becoming a physician-scientist.

Derrick, from Kumasi, Ghana

Psychology and History major

My Jewell experience was incredibly valuable in so many ways, but most of all, I was afforded the opportunity to learn and thrive in an environment that nurtured my passions and goals. I was provided an abundance of skills and knowledge that have enabled me to confidently take the first steps in my career as a registered behavioral technician.

Caio, physics major; Ph.D. biomedical physics student

I am passionate about applying physics to advance healthcare—particularly in radiation oncology, proton therapy, and clinical dosimetry—while also contributing to scientific education and mentorship. I held leadership roles as president of Mortar Board honor society and the Society of Physics Students. I led community engagement initiatives, organized physics outreach events, and coordinated a national research conference trip. As a collegiate swimmer, I learned discipline, resilience, and effective time management—attributes I carry into research and clinical practice.
