Experience Life as a Hawk

The best way to get a feel for life as a Hawk is to experience Saint Joseph’s for yourself. We offer a variety of in-person and virtual visit opportunities to explore our 125-acre campus, which crosses a vibrant Philadelphia neighborhood and sprawling Lower Merion suburbs.

Saint Joseph's University is pausing campus tours beginning Tuesday, November 24. The Maguire Wolfington Welcome Center will continue to be open for walk-ins and self-guided tours Monday–Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
