Dear Friends:

Here at Olivet Nazarene University, we believe that education is the key to the future.  Focusing on education allows individuals to take advantage of opportunities they never thought possible.   We believe our programs are not just about textbooks and classrooms, but rather about providing avenues for individuals to reach heights that were once distant dreams.   In today’s busy world, Olivet Nazarene University’s School of Graduate and Continuing Studies offers a manageable opportunity for all adult professionals to make their dreams reality. 

The School of Graduate and Continuing Studies was formally designed to serve as an academic unit in response to a strong commitment to graduate and adult continuing education.  Traditionally, college education has been available only to those with the time and money to spend several years away from work, and usually away from home.  Individuals who either choose or need to work after high school often find no practical way of continuing their education.  Olivet’s School of Graduate and Continuing Studies actively searches to find ways to meet the needs of the growing number of adults returning to school. 

As one who completed my MBA as an adult learner, I understand the strong commitment it takes to take on this chapter in life.  I also know that without the opportunity, I would not be in the position I am today.  Completing my education as an adult learner enabled me to reach heights I never thought existed.  Education significantly impacted my life and provided avenues for God to use me in ways I never dreamed. 

Olivet Nazarene University provides a liberal arts education with a distinctive Christian context.  The School of Graduate and Continuing Studies is committed to serving the mission of Olivet both on campus and at our various off-campus locations.  We are committed to providing high-quality academic programs that meet the needs of today’s adult learner.

If we can assist you in any way toward reaching your goals and dreams, please contact us at 1-800-4OLIVET. 

Sincerely,

 Ryan D. Spittal, MBA, CPA

Dean, School of Graduate and Continuing Studies
