| The choice of a college or university may be the most important decision you make. There is no definitive procedure in selecting the college or university that is right for you. In the United States, hundreds of excellent colleges and universities provide students the best education in the world. I am sure that all the colleges and universities to which you apply will have excellent faculty, a record of successful graduates and many extracurricular programs.
Benedictine University offers all of the above and more. Benedictine University is a Catholic and Benedictine institution with a worldwide reach. As a liberal arts institution, we seek to prepare you for a profession and for life. The University boasts renowned faculty and nationally recognized programs in science, education, health and business. We offer a number of extracurricular activities and intercollegiate athletic programs that provide students the opportunity to develop their minds, bodies and spirits. Primarily, however, we imbue our students with the values of our founders and prepare them to become leaders and citizens of an increasingly global society.
So, how do you pick the college or university that is right for you? In addition to having the programs you wish to pursue, the magic, I believe, is in the chemistry between you and the institution. When you walk on campus, ask yourself a very simple question. Does this institution feel right for me? Do I feel like I can grow and prosper here? If your answer is yes, you are home.
I invite you to visit our campus and to experience the very special hospitality for which Benedictines are known. Come and see us. Ask questions and tour the campus.
You just might find yourself at home.
Sincerely,
William J. Carroll
President - Benedictine University
And Springfield College in Illinois
