AJCU – NA

The Association of Jesuit Colleges and Universities (AJCU) is a national organization that represents Jesuit higher education among its various constituencies; provides a forum for the exchange of information and experiences in Jesuit higher education; and encourages and facilitates collaborative initiatives among its member institutions. Those initiatives include: fostering Jesuit, Catholic identity and mission; educating for a faith that does justice; supporting national, international and online collaborations between campuses; and sponsoring professional and leadership development programs.

The 28 Jesuit colleges and universities that comprise AJCU are located in 17 states, the District of Columbia and Belize (two associate member institutions are located in Canada and one is located in Australia). The institutions include major research universities; comprehensive universities; smaller colleges and universities that combine the liberal arts and professional studies; and one strictly liberal arts college.
