Powerful Academics: From fashion design to nursing, all of our degree programs are career-focused. Dominican is your pipeline to Chicago’s best jobs and internships.

High-Impact Opportunities: You’ll venture beyond campus, maybe even beyond borders. More than 90% of our students complete internships, study abroad or other high-impact experiences outside class. And unlike most universities, you won’t have to wait until graduate school to conduct serious research. You’ll do it as an undergraduate. We’ll even fund it.

Relationship-Centered Learning: We’re known for tremendous academic rigor as well as an atmosphere of care, concern and support. That’s why we keep our classes intimate (average size is just 16 students). Your professors and fellow students will know you. You’ll graduate with a powerful network of friends and mentors.

Support: We know today’s college students face a lot of pressures. Dominican is on the leading edge of schools providing the most comprehensive student support services. They include: career development, free tutoring, on-campus health care and counseling, and advisors who will help you map a college-to-career plan from day one. See for Yourself. See Yourself Here.
