provides value that is seldom equaled in today’s education market.

ONU offers business programs – designed to meet you where you are – at the associate, bachelor and master’s levels.

“We will be offering an inaugural MBA in February 2016,” explained Cati Lingle, Director of Educational Partnerships.

“Students whose employers are part of our academic partnership will receive not only a 20% tuition discount but will also be able to register for their first course for free. We are waiving the fee for this February 29, 2016, rollout. If the students work for a company that doesn’t offer the partnership, there are other ways to qualify for tuition discounts. We are affiliated with several associations. For example, if the students are members of a nursing association that we have a relationship with, they are eligible for tuition discounts.”

O

ne of the nation’s oldest top Christian universities, Olivet Nazarene University (ONU) has opened its first site on the northside of Indianapolis. Their 17,000 square-foot building offers on-site classrooms and lab rooms that accommodate 15-20 students and houses eight full-time staff members.

ONU’s programs build on the students’ experiences and education. The university has strived to provide education with a Christian purpose since 1907. With more than 30 programs offered online and in over 100 different locations throughout Illinois, Indiana and Michigan, the School of Graduate

and Continuing Studies offers programs that “meet you where you are.”

“This is the first out-of-state site for Olivet,” stated Carrie Dilley, Executive Director of Marketing and Communications. “Our main campus was established and is located in Bourbonnais, Illinois. We have since opened sites in Michigan as well.

“In addition to our academic programs, one piece that we focus on and promote is our customer service. Our students can come in at any point in their career or education level, and we can help them achieve their goals. We have a student success team that assists them

from admission all the way through until graduation. We also have a financial solutions team that helps students find the best option in paying for school.”

Students will not only develop sound professional skills, but also an ethical perspective for applying them. ONU understands the time demands on their students’ schedules and the effort required by their job. The university differentiates themselves from other online universities with their accelerated programs that meet online or on campus only one night per week and are completed in less than two years. That, coupled with affordable tuition,

TOWNEPOST NETWORK / JANUARY 2016 / TownePost.com

ONU has entered an articulation agreement with Ivy Tech which offers Ivy Tech students, employees and alumni eligibility to receive ONU tuition discounts for programs offered through the Indianapolis location.

Other programs offered through ONU such as their Criminal Justice program provides an opportunity for professionals serving within the Criminal Justice career fields of law enforcement, probation, parole and corrections to remain employed while completing the online Criminal Justice degree requirements. Professionals seeking competitive advantage in the efforts to retain their positions and secure promotions have opportunity to better understand their field of occupation and seek to better their profession.

ONU emphasizes that anyone who is in the nursing profession has the power to help people heal while fulfilling the potential within oneself. Through ONU’s School of Graduate and Continuing Studies, the Nursing programs are designed to provide the skills and knowledge to help nurses do just that.

ONU’s School of Graduate and Continuing Studies is committed to providing the kind of education and skill development necessary to meet the demands of today’s educational environment. Their programs are relevant, current and accredited by the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education. ONU provides master’s degree and certificate programs in several areas to help existing teachers sharpen their skills and advance their careers.

This university also offers an online Master of Engineering Management (MEM) degree, a technical alternative to the traditional MBA, that prepares graduates for careers managing systems, processes, procedures, organizations and business.

“We are now offering a dual admissions initiative through our ‘Pursue ONU’ initiative,” stated Jen Owen, Associate Director of Marketing stated. “It gives students the opportunity to be simultaneously admitted to Olivet Nazarene University and a participating community college. The goal is to create a seamless and successful transition to transfer students intending to complete their baccalaureate degree at ONU.” For more information about Olivet Nazarene University and their 2016 registrations, visit graduate.olivet.edu.
