Saint Leo University launched its television commercial today on popular cable stations such as E!, BRAVO, TLC, FX, VH-1, and the HALLMARK MOVIE CHANNEL. The commercial reviews the Saint Leo Center for Online Learning bachelor degree programs, including applicable military education benefits, scholarships, and enrollment counseling.

Television channels were selected for target audiences that would show interest in an online bachelor degree program for their career. Recent graduates recount their experiences at Saint Leo University, including their promotions, financial improvements, and motivation for their family.

Saint Leo University has reached out to prospective students and the community via other media in the past, such as appearing in popular television shows. SLU also offers community service programs and educational lectures to everyone in the campus’ area to provide open doors for adults and military members eager to find places to learn.

“This commercial will help make prospective students aware of this respectable, 120-year university,” said Jessica Ker, marketing representative for Saint Leo University. “But most of all, it will reach out to the adult learners that didn’t even consider college as an option for their career growth. I will believe it will have a positive influence on the Saint Leo University community.”

Saint Leo University prides itself on a rich student body with over a century of quality, accredited education. SLU wishes to make this education available to Florida students and online students across the world. If you watch any of the above television stations, keep an eye out for Saint Leo University’s television commercial!
