Important Facts
Unique Educational Model
Just about every college is talking about experiential education. That’s because it works. At Johnson & Wales, we’ve been perfecting this approach for more than 100 years.
We offer an optimal blend of intellectual development, industry-focused education, résumé-building work experiences, community and leadership opportunities, and an uncommon depth of career services.
At Johnson & Wales, the experience is the difference. This means that experiential learning is much more than an internship tacked onto a major. It’s woven into all aspects of our education, in and out of the classroom. You won’t just learn theory. You’ll turn it into real-world practice. You’ll work on real-world projects in class, in our industry-specific learning labs, and sometimes with real companies.
This approach is a more effective way to learn. Through these experiences, you’ll be uniquely prepared for shifting industries and have the flexibility to pursue other career paths and entrepreneurial ventures.
Upward Mobility
Starting from their family’s income quintile prior to enrollment, nearly 20 percent of JWU alumni moved up two or more income quintiles in the U.S. Nearly two percent moved from the bottom income quintile to the top, much higher than the average for selective private colleges nationwide and among all Rhode Island colleges. (Source: “Economic Diversity and Students Outcomes at Johnson & Wales University.” The New York Times. January 18, 2017.)
Accreditation
JWU is accredited by the New England Commission of Higher Education (NECHE), through its Commission on Institutions of Higher Education (CIHE). The nation’s oldest regional accrediting association, NECHE accredits educational institutions internationally. This accreditation encompasses the university’s four campuses.
