Overall ExperienceWhat's This?

Inspired by its Jesuit roots, Santa Clara's mission to educate the whole person by engaging the mind, body, and spirit encourages its students to maintain a healthy balance between work and play. Santa Clara's diverse academic, extracurricular, and community service opportunities make it easy for students to do what they love and to tailor their SCU experience accordingly. Though many students initially have a tough time adjusting (typical for most college freshmen), taking advantage of the resources provided by the strong campus community can help make the transition process easier. Thriving at Santa Clara requires finding your niche, which can take awhile, but is worth it once you do. 

Most students cite weather, location, and academics as Santa Clara's greatest strengths, and they appreciate the active and supportive community on campus. While many students agree that they would change certain aspects of the school if they could (the cost of tuition taking priority), most feel pretty satisfied with their Santa Clara experience.

Gorgeous Campus

Our campus is one of the most beautiful. It may be smaller than Stanford, but we make up for it with rose gardens, fountains, and trees. We also have great facilities. We just updated our gym, refurbished three dorms, built new apartments with marble countertops, and just built a new dorm that should be spectacular.

Lots to Do Off Campus

There is some fun places and things to do immediately off campus, granted most include parties on the weekends; however, once you get a Zipcar, a bus, or a friend with a car, then you can go to Santana Row, Valley Fair, Great America, movies, and San Francisco. It is totally wirth it to go out and explore San Jose, as there are a great deal of museums and attractions and restaurants.

Guys Are Hot

Having been rated one of the most athletic campuses, we sport some of the best looking campus guys around. We have a lot of different types, sporty, frat, nerdy chic, but overall they are toned, tanned, and ready to either party, study, or hang out.
