Minutes from Connecticut’s capital city and surrounded by corporate, medical, and cultural resources, USJ students live and learn on a quintessential New England campus, meld classroom learning with pre-professional experience, and compete on NCAA Division III conference championship teams. Students seeking an undergraduate, master’s, or doctoral degree will find a place to shine at our small university with big outcomes.
In recent years, USJ has experienced rapid growth and innovation. Undergraduate enrollment continues to grow year over year, with a record number of residential students. Strategic program expansion has fueled this growth, including the launch of new undergraduate programs in Computer Science and Engineering Science, as well as innovative accelerated dual-degree pathways. The University has also strengthened partnerships with area Catholic and Independent high schools through concurrent enrollment programs, providing students with early access to college coursework. Academic excellence remains a hallmark, with a 100% NCLEX pass rate for both traditional and accelerated nursing programs and a six-year streak of 100% PANCE pass rates for the M.S. in Physician Assistant Studies program. Additionally, high-quality online and on-campus master’s and doctoral programs further enhance the institution’s reputation and appeal to a robust student body.
