Holy Cross is a highly selective, four-year, undergraduate, liberal arts institution
and is ranked among the nation’s leading four-year liberal arts colleges. Over time, Holy Cross has continuously evolved to reflect
the needs of its more than 3,000 students and changing times. Its Jesuit, Catholic identity has remained a constant throughout that
evolution—informing and influencing everything the college does.
As a liberal arts college, Holy Cross pursues excellence in
teaching, learning, and research. All members of the Holy Cross community are challenged to be open to new ideas, to be patient with
ambiguity and uncertainty, and to combine a passion for truth with respect for the views of others. Informed by the presence of diverse
interpretations of the human experience, Holy Cross seeks to build a community marked by freedom, mutual respect, and civility.
Holy
Cross is proud to be recognized by publications and organizations that cover higher education for its exceptional academic programs, top
professors, and great campus experiences. Holy Cross is one of a select group of colleges (fewer than 100) that meets 100% of each

America and is among the 53 most beautiful college campuses in America, according to Architectural Digest. Holy Cross was also
included on Princeton Review’s list of “Best 388 Colleges” and “Colleges That Pay You Back.” It is
also listed among the “best and most interesting colleges” in the Fiske Guide to Colleges.
Holy Cross was named
number one on the Institute for International Education’s list of long-term student abroad programs and number four on
Wall Street Journal’s list of 2022-23 best Catholic colleges in America. Money Magazine named Holy Cross fifth on
its list of “Best Value Liberal Arts Colleges” and number 32 among “Best Colleges in America 2022.” The institution
