Jones College is a private for-profit college founded in 1918 in Jacksonville, Florida. The college is not regionally accredited, but is accredited by the Accrediting Council for Independent Colleges and Schools (ACICS). The college's main "Arlington Campus" is located on the east bank of the St. Johns River at the base of the Mathews Bridge. There is a second campus on the west side of town. A third campus, in Miami, Florida, was closed in August 2010. The college curriculum includes bachelor's degree and associate degree programs in a variety of fields and now offers distance learning.

Radio

A notable feature of the school is Jones College Radio, a non-commercial broadcast from the campus on station WKTZ-FM (90.9 MHz), 24 hours a day. The programming content is easy listening, branded as "Beautiful Music". The station began as an AM station in 1964, then switched to FM in 1973. The station is played in many businesses and professional offices on the First Coast instead of commercial muzak and can be accessed via the station's Internet website. Jones College also operates WJAX-AM 1220 which features the syndicated America's Best Music format of adult standards. It, too can be accessed via the station's Internet website.
