Celebrating Our Diversity
The statue of Elizabeth Ann Seton at the heart of our campus is a daily reminder of the kind of community we strive to be—one that recognizes the dignity of all, welcomes each student fully, and treasures their gifts.
Redefining Leadership
For nearly 160 years, Seton Hall University has been a place where leaders learn. Bishop Bayley envisioned a university that would be a "home for the mind, the heart and the spirit" — a place that would develop well-rounded, compassionate leaders who are prepared to serve society.
Hands-on Learning
At Seton Hall, you learn by doing — exploring, challenging, discovering, questioning and discussing. We combine classroom learning with real-world, practical experiences to make learning more tangible; we forge connections between theory and practice.
