Founded in Philadelphia by the Society of Jesus in 1851, Saint Joseph's University is home to 4,150 full-time undergraduates and 3,450 graduate, executive and non-traditional students. One of just 142 schools nationwide with a Phi Beta Kappa chapter and AACSB business school accreditation, Saint Joseph's challenges its students to exceed their highest ambitions, fosters the mature development of values and deepens a desire to help shape the world. The Jesuit tradition of cura personalis -- care for the entire person -- is reflected in the university's rigorous academic experience; energetic, compassionate and spiritual campus; and focus on the common good.
