About

A Jesuit university on Connecticut's Gold Coast an hour from Manhattan, with a polished campus near Fairfield's beaches. The Dolan School of Business feeds strongly into New York finance and Big Four accounting, while nursing and health studies are regional standouts. Preppy, career-driven, community-minded.
