Academics and Faculty

A Tradition of Excellence
A St. John's education commands respect across the country and around the world.

Whatever your goals, St. John's offers a program that is right for you. Students prepare for success through our six noted schools and colleges:


With more than 100 quality academic programs, our schools and colleges offer a vast range of undergraduate and graduate options. Students who change their major can easily transfer to another college within the University.

Professors of Distinction
With our low 17:1 student/faculty ratio, our students enjoy the personal attention they deserve.

Our faculty are acclaimed scholars, over 90 percent of whom hold a Ph.D. or other terminal degree in their field. Many are recipients of Guggenheim, Fulbright and other distinguished fellowships.

Reflecting St. John's values as a Catholic, Vincentian and Metropolitan university with a global reach, our professors challenge you to achieve all your goals.
