St. John's University
St. John's is one of America's leading Catholic universities – nationally ranked (by The Princeton Review and U.S. News & World Report) and recognized for its superb academic programs, diverse student life, New York vitality and BIG EAST athletic excitement. Founded in 1870 by the Vincentian Community, St. John’s has distinguished itself by giving students the knowledge, skills and confidence to serve others while achieving lasting success – personally, professionally and spiritually.
With more than 20,000 undergraduate and graduate students from 45 states and 122 countries, the University offers housing for more than 2,900 students in five friendly residential campus locations (Queens, Staten Island, Manhattan and Oakdale, New York as well as Rome, Italy).
St. John’s values its investment in education while continuing to raise the bar of academic and athletic success. A recent eight-year capital campaign raised a record $272 million to support student scholarships, faculty and academic programs, technology, and the building and modernization of new facilities (both academic and athletic).
