UPDATE FROM THE PRESIDENT

Record Enrollment - 1,506 Missouri Valley College celebrated its largest enrollment in school history in fall 2018 with 1,506 students. What a great way to kick off the academic year! I am so proud of the hard work that our staff and faculty do to bring these students to campus.

LPN to BSN online track is launched MVC launched its new LPN to BSN online track for nursing students. This new track allows an LPN to obtain their BSN degree online, while still working full time! Read more about this program on page 22 of this magazine.

$19,250 Awarded in Guardian Fund Scholarships The Guardian Fund is an endowed scholarship program that was established to help bridge the gap in the amount for which a student is responsible, allowing them to more affordably have the opportunity to obtain a baccalaureate degree. Often times, the gap between the amount of money a student receives in financial aid and the cost of attending college becomes a burden to our students and their families, sometimes forcing them to put their education on hold. I am so pleased to say that this year, we awarded $19,250 helping 19 students bridge that gap thus allowing them to focus on and continue their education, and next year, we plan to double that amount!

THANK YOU! 10k+ connected and committed alumni and friends We couldn’t do what we do without the support of our alumni and friends. We thank you for all the ways that you support MVC, and are excited to continue working with you to move the College forward.

Valley Will Roll!

President
