Classes began May 6 for Hallmark
University’s newest program: Eastside
Cyberforce Prime.
As a community minded university,
Brent describes the program as
one where they worked to help the
community build relationships on
San Antonio’s underserved east side,
an often-overlooked area for talent.

Students realize that employers look
for character as much as skill, whether
the employer is faith-based or not.”
Home-schooled students can gain
acceptance into Hallmark University,
provided they comply with Hallmark
University’s entrance testing requirements
and present an official
transcript for home school education.
