Advancing the Mission

Welcome to the Division of University Advancement!  We are dedicated to supporting John Carroll University’s ability to graduate individuals of intellect and character who will lead and serve by engaging the world around them and around the globe.  Through alumni relations, strategic university marketing and communications, development, and advancement services our goal is to build stronger relationships and secure philanthropic support from alumni, parents, friends, faculty, staff, and members of the community who share John Carroll’s vision and mission.

The Jesuit tradition of education is respected and revered at John Carroll through our outstanding faculty dedicated to teaching by supporting and encouraging research, and promoting intellectual excellence and academic rigor, which created student/faculty relationships long after graduation.  Organizations, businesses, the public sector – can’t wait to hire graduates of John Carroll University because they are prepared, ready to contribute, and ready to give back. 

We support activities to engage John Carroll alumni in the life and future of their alma mater, strengthening university wide marketing and communications through unified messaging and look, generating philanthropic resources to support scholarships, academic chairs, and other priorities of the university, and tracking alumni and donor records and financial information to support vital university activities.
