The University is located upon a bluff in a residential neighborhood overlooking the Willamette River and the dynamic city of Portland, Oregon. The school’s location also is the inspiration for its nickname, “The Bluff.” Since its inception, the University has been guided by the Congregation of Holy Cross, a Catholic order of priests and brothers. The founder of the order, Blessed Basil Moreau, CSC, said, “The mind will not be cultivated at the expense of the heart.” This commitment to educating the hands, heart, and mind are hallmarks of the University’s belief in educating the whole person. UP is Oregon’s only comprehensive university with schools of business, education, engineering, nursing, a College of Arts & Sciences, and a graduate school. It is also the state’s only Catholic university and largest private undergraduate institution. It offers more than 40 undergraduate programs and 30 minors, as well as 18 graduate programs and more than 1,300 courses. The University features small class settings (12:1 student-faculty ratio) and an award-winning faculty committed to excellence in undergraduate and graduate education. UP has had a top-10 ranking in (U.S. News & World Report “Regional Universities-West”) for over 25 consecutive years and is a member of the West Coast Conference (Santa Clara, Gonzaga, Loyola Marymount, University of San Diego, University of San Francisco, Saint Mary’s College of California, Pepperdine, University of the Pacific, and Brigham Young University). UP is a close-knit community that’s open to all. It’s a place where diversity, equality, and inclusivity are paramount. That translates into continually striving to create an environment where everyone benefits from being exposed to a wide range of ideas, experiences, and perspectives. Because we believe inclusivity is a way of life, we are always looking at enhancing the types of programs, events, and resources offered so as to best embrace our diverse community.
