Welcome and thank you for your interest in John Carroll University. From its modest origin in 1886 as Saint Ignatius College on Cleveland's near West Side, John Carroll today is widely recognized as a transformative place that excels in undergraduate and post-graduate education, attracting students from nearly 40 states and 20 countries. We strive to develop each student as a whole person - mind, body, and soul. At the same time, we challenge them to make a difference in our world through leadership and service.

As a Jesuit Catholic university, John Carroll offers a rigorous education based on a well-developed liberal arts core curriculum, including a variety of academic programs in the arts and sciences, and education. We also take great pride in our nationally recognized Boler School of Business and its 7th best master's program in the Midwest, as ranked by U.S. News & World Report. See the U.S. News and Word Report Feature article.

A multi-year Master Plan initiative is progressing to assure strategic use of our campus in the future. World-renowned Sasaki Associates, Inc., of Watertown, Massachusetts -- which has created master plans for dozens of universities -- is collaborating with Cleveland-based Osborn Engineering on the project.

Whether you are a prospective student, parent, or alum, I invite you to explore our Web site to learn more about our success stories and all that we offer. Better yet, come visit us to see what's new at John Carroll today.

Rev. Robert L. Niehoff, S.J.
