Rachel Jantz

Rachel Jantz works alongside faculty and professional advisors to give guidance and structure to the academic advising experience of North Park students. Driven to help students develop a love for learning, she has focused her education and career on academic support and leadership.

Jantz believes academic advising is more than just choosing courses for a major and should involve all facets of students’ lives. “Throughout my schooling, I remember one thing specifically–the people. I am who I am today because my professors, fellow students, dear friends, amazing mentors, and dedicated coworkers touched my life, even if it was in a small way.” This journey starts with a strong academic foundation and a love of learning, which she believes students will find at North Park University.

“I believe we should all be asking the hard questions to develop ourselves every day, every week, every year. I want North Park students to value their education both inside and outside the classroom and never stop being curious.”
