Jassen Yep recently claimed an NCAA title in the 200-yard breaststroke with a blazing time of 1:48 — a performance that not only secured the national championship but also made him the #3 performer of all time in the event.
But Jassen’s success isn’t limited to the water.
This May, he’s graduating with his master’s degree in Sociology through a competitive 4+1 program, having completed both his bachelor’s and master’s in just five years. A double major in Sociology and Economics, with minors in Chinese and Math, Jassen has balanced a demanding academic load with the intensity of elite collegiate swimming — and thrived.
Whether he’s breaking records or breaking down complex social systems, Jassen brings focus, determination, and excellence to everything he does.
