Do We Have Them?
Did you start at Jefferson College of Health Sciences (JCHS)?
- Past Students from 2017 – Fall 2019 (merger with Radford University): Your records will be on a 10-year retention schedule. As long as it has been less than 10 years since you last attended JCHS, we have your records.
- Past Students from 2011 – 2016: Your records are on a 7-year retention schedule, so as long as it has been less than 7 years since you last attended Jefferson, we have your records.
