At ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ, our mission shapes our actions and gives meaning to their outcomes. United by our mission, we work side by side to make the world a better place.
ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ is a Catholic, Jesuit university dedicated to serving God by serving our students and contributing to the advancement of knowledge. Our mission, therefore, is the search for truth, the discovery and sharing of knowledge, the fostering of personal and professional excellence, the promotion of a life of faith, and the development of leadership expressed in service to others. All this we pursue for the greater glory of God and the common benefit of the human community.

In all our programs, we strive to develop men and women who will dedicate their lives to the service of others, and who will play an active role in creating a more just society. We expect everyone at ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ, regardless of their faith tradition, to give in some way to those in need.
It’s a Latin term that means care for the whole person. It also means you'll be cared for as an individual here, whatever challenges you face.
We're a home away from home for just over 11,700 undergraduate and graduate students from nearly every state and more than 60 countries. Add in faculty and staff, and you have a network of people who will expand your perspective, push you to be better, and be there whenever you need a friend. And these bonds are strong — you'll count on the connections you make at ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ for years to come.
We are open to all who share our mission and seek truth both in the world and inside themselves. We strive to maintain a culture of hospitality amid division and uncertainty, and we ask those who are part of our educational mission to build a community of belonging based on God’s love for all.
We've made excellent progress on our journey to become a Hispanic Serving Institution, which requires an undergraduate population that's at least 25% Hispanic and at least half of those students qualifying as low-income.
First-generation college students are an integral part of our student body – 1 in 5 ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ students is first-generation.
We welcome nearly 400 international students to campus every year, enriching our culture with a variety of voices.
As a ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ student, you'll become part of a community that extends well past the boundaries of campus. ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ has over 115,000 alumni and over 40 alumni clubs that link students and alumni in one powerful worldwide network.
You’ll be able to connect to alumni in a variety of ways, including the award-winning ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ Mentors program that matches students with an alumni mentor to help them prepare and launch their career.
Our welcoming nature isn’t limited to campus. As men and women with and for others, we’re committed to serving those around us. You’ll find hundreds of ways to do just that through our student volunteer organizations.
