Welcome Home

Living on campus is both exciting and liberating because you share the experience with new roommates and neighbors. Once you immerse yourself in our tight-knit campus community, you find that your residence hall feels less like a dorm, and more like a home.

President’s Society Member Emphasizes Service

“St. John’s University has brought nothing but blessings to my life,” emphasized Vanessa Diaz, a Brooklyn, NY, native and Criminal Justice major. “Here I followed my passion for service to others. St. John’s has opened doors, giving me opportunities related to social justice and advocacy that I wouldn’t have had. The University also brought me back to my roots and opened my eyes to what it means to be Hispanic. Our diversity is unmatched.”

Pharmacy Student Credits St. John’s for His Success

He chose pharmacy for two reasons. An inquisitive child, Joshua always wondered how and why things worked. “Pharmacy allowed me to answer the fascinating questions as to how and why the body works, and how drugs exert their effects.”
