Jerome Beasley played at Midland College from 1999 to 2001, where he spent two seasons at the junior college level before transferring to the University of North Dakota. Midland College competed in junior college basketball, and while detailed box-by-box statistics for his Midland seasons are limited online, available records show Beasley averaged 4.9 points per game in 1999–2000 while shooting 54.7% from the field, and in 2000–01 he averaged 10.3 points and 5.5 rebounds per game for Midland during his second season with the Chaparrals. After transferring, Beasley suited up for North Dakota in NCAA Division II competition from 2001 to 2003, playing in 29 games in each of his two seasons with the Fighting Sioux. As a junior during the 2001–02 season, he started all 29 games, led the team in scoring at 21.7 points per game and in rebounding at 7.9 rebounds per game, while shooting 53.3% from the floor, 51.9% from three-point range, and 75.5% from the free-throw line. He also ranked second on the team in blocks (12) and third in steals (28), led the North Central Conference (NCC) in scoring, finished fifth in the NCC in rebounding (7.6 rpg), and had 11 double-doubles while grabbing double-figure rebounds 11 times. His performance included a season-high 41 points in a win over North Dakota State (1/5/02)—one of four 30-plus point games and his 41-point effort tying for the eighth-best single-game scoring output in UND history and the most ever by a North Dakota player against the Bison—as well as a season-high 16 rebounds in an overtime win over Minnesota-Duluth (12/12/01).

His scoring average of 26.6 points ranked among the nation’s top Division II scorers and earned him North Dakota’s leading scorer status for the season, while his rebounding average continued to be a team high. Across his two seasons in Grand Forks, his combined Division II totals featured averages of approximately 24.1 points, 8.4 rebounds, and shooting splits of about 52.2% from the field, 47.5% from three, and 74.4% from the free-throw line. During his time at North Dakota, Beasley earned major conference and national recognition, being named the North Central Conference Most Valuable Player and Newcomer of the Year in 2001–02, earning Division II Bulletin first-team All-America honours and NABC and Daktronics second-team All-America honours, as well as a spot on the NCC Wells Fargo Finals All-Tournament team. From 1999 to 2001, Beasley played at Midland College, a junior college in Texas, then transferred to the University of North Dakota.
As a senior Beasley averaged 26.6 points and 80.9 rebounds per game, while shooting 51.3% from the field, and with a 73.6% free throw accuracy.
