The American revolution started in Philadelphia, which is one of the reasons why the Jesuits chose to build our University here. It’s a city of great beginnings, big ambitions and life-changing opportunities.
Location of Saint Joseph's University
Saint Joseph’s University spans two beautiful Philadelphia locations. Our 125-acre Hawk Hill campus and 24-acre University City campus offer students the best of both worlds: a historic Main Line suburb and a vibrant Philadelphia neighborhood just west of Center City. Here, you have easy access to all of the endless opportunities the nation’s sixth largest city has to offer.
