When you choose a university, you’re not just choosing a place to study, you’re choosing your second home. It’s a place to grow, to explore, to build lasting memories — and of course, to have fun! With access to Saint Joseph's University’s three unique locations, you’ll live and study among an endless array of food, museums, music and culture, all just steps away from campus.

Did you know Saint Joseph’s University has three locations? With two in Philadelphia — University City and Hawk Hill — and one in nearby Lancaster, the possibilities for exploration are endless. Whether you’re snapping pics of Philly’s iconic landmarks, checking out the Main Line’s hottest new restaurants, or cooling off with cones along Lancaster’s Ice Cream Trail, we have a feeling you’ll fall in love with the neighborhoods we call home.

And, with such close proximity to two of Pennsylvania’s greatest cities (if we do say so ourselves), opportunities for real-world experience and professional development abound.
