POST UNIVERSITY ADDS SPRINT FOOTBALL PROGRAM
If you haven't already heard the big news, Post University will welcome its first-ever football team to campus next Fall. As a member of the prestigious Collegiate Sprint Football League (CSFL), Post University students will play against such illustrious institutions as Princeton, Cornell, University of Pennsylvania, Army, Navy and Mansfield.
We hope those of you who live close to Philadelphia will come cheer on the team at their first game against University of Pennsylvania at historic Franklin Field in Philadelphia - Friday, September 24, 2010. The Post Eagles Football Team's first home game will be played against Mansfield University on October 30. We'll send you more information on our first two games in August.

The University expects to bring another 80-100 full-time jobs between now and June 2010. We offer competitive compensation and an excellent benefit package including a comprehensive healthcare program and a 401k plan.

FOR SOME MILITARY FAMILIES, POST UNIVERSITY IS NOT ONLY A SOURCE OF EDUCATION, IT'S A SOURCE OF COMFORT
Through a special program offered by Post University Online, a growing number of Active Duty Military Personnel are pursuing their college degrees while serving our country. For Army SPC Miquel Ellis who's stationed in Iraq and his wife Keisha, who's taking classes from their home in Georgia, it's more than a chance to get an education. It's a chance to stay connected. Both are pursuing degrees in Criminal Justice through the university's Accelerated Degree program. Post University staff arranged for the couple to take the same course, so even if Keisha hasn't gotten a phone call or email from Miquel in a couple of days, she can breathe a sigh of relief when she logs on to her course and sees that he's logged on too.
