Albertus Magnus College, a four-year private liberal arts college located in the vibrant heart of southern Connecticut, provides 500 traditional undergraduates with opportunities to reach their full potential and prepare for meaningful careers through experiential learning. Founded in 1925 by the Dominican Sisters of Peace, Albertus educates men and women to become leaders.
We are small by design and personal in nature. Faculty are readily accessible. Our student-faculty ratio of 14:1 allows teachers and staff to know students on an individual basis. Our 50-acre campus is located in a residential neighborhood of New Haven’s historic Prospect Hill. About 60% of students live in campus housing converted from former mansions. Both New York City and Boston are easily reached by train; Tweed New Haven Airport provides service to more than 300 destinations.
The Albertus campus - entirely wireless, offering multiple computer labs - includes Bree Common, which houses classrooms, a Starbucks, an atrium and patio for student gatherings and study. The Fearless Falcons compete at the NCAA Division III level. The Shea Softball Complex is a new addition.
An Albertus education is built on the four pillars of the Dominican charism: Study, Prayer, Community, and Service. Popular majors include Art Therapy, Business, Criminal Justice, Communications, Education, Psychology and Sociology. A survey of recent graduates found that 97% were either employed or in graduate school six months after graduation.
