How to Visit or Contact Jones College

Updated

Jones College (jcjc.edu) gives prospective students two direct paths to engage: book a campus visit through the Schedule a Visit or Campus Tours links on the homepage, or reach out to Admissions & Records and Enrollment Counselors for one-on-one questions. The site also lists off-campus locations in Clarke, Greene, Jasper, and Wayne counties, plus the Advanced Technology Center (ATC), so you can choose the site closest to you. Use the Upcoming Events and News & Events sections to catch open houses or recruiting activities before you commit to a date.

Booking a Campus Visit

The homepage surfaces two related entry points under the Future Student section:

  • Schedule a Visit — the primary call-to-action button next to "Apply to Jones."
  • Campus Tours — listed under Future Student services, alongside Disability Services and How to Enroll.

Both lead to the same goal: getting you on campus. When you book, expect to see the main campus in Ellisville as the default option. If you are closer to a county center, check the location selector first (see below) so your tour matches the site you would actually attend.

What to prepare before you book:

  • Your intended program of study, so the tour can route you to the right building (academic vs. career and technical).
  • Any accessibility needs — Disability Services is listed as a separate Future Student resource and can be coordinated in advance.
  • A list of questions for the Enrollment Counselor, since tours and advising are separate steps.

Finding the Location Nearest You

Jones College is not a single-campus operation. The site's location selector lists these options:

Location Type
Main Campus (Ellisville) Primary campus
Advanced Technology Center (ATC) Off-campus program site
Clarke County County center
Greene County County center
Jasper County County center
Wayne County County center

Use the Select A Location dropdown on the homepage to filter programs by site. This matters if you plan to enroll at a county center — not every program is offered at every location, so confirm your program runs where you intend to study before scheduling a visit there.

Contacting Admissions and Getting One-on-One Help

The site lists several contact channels under Future Student and Admissions & Records:

  • Enrollment Counselors — for prospective students who have not yet applied.
  • Recruiting — for group visits, school partnerships, and outreach.
  • Admissions & Records — for application status, transcripts, and enrollment paperwork.
  • Counseling — for academic advising and student support once enrolled.
  • Request Transcript — for sending your records to Jones or forwarding Jones credits elsewhere.

If you are still deciding whether to apply, start with an Enrollment Counselor rather than Admissions & Records. Counselors handle the "should I enroll and how" questions; Admissions & Records handles the "my application is submitted, what now" questions.

Catching Events Before You Visit

Two homepage sections keep you current:

  • Upcoming Events — time-sensitive activities like open houses, registration deadlines, and campus programs.
  • News & Events — broader announcements, including the Alumni Newsletter and Homecoming.

Checking these before booking a tour can save you a trip: if a recruiting event or open house is already scheduled near you, that may answer your questions faster than a one-on-one tour.

Quick Checklist

  1. Decide which location you would actually attend (main campus or a county center).
  2. Confirm your program is offered there using the location filter.
  3. Book through Schedule a Visit or Campus Tours.
  4. Note any accessibility needs and flag them with Disability Services.
  5. Check Upcoming Events for open houses that might replace or supplement a tour.
  6. Follow up with an Enrollment Counselor for program-specific questions.

The site does not publish walk-in hours or a general phone number in the material reviewed here, so booking through the listed visit and counselor channels is the reliable route.
