A landmark Catholic institution of suburban Chicagoland

Private Catholic Christian Liberal Arts Historic Small Suburban Eagles

Benedictine University is a nationally-ranked, historic Catholic institution that has served Chicago’s western suburbs since the late 19th century. While predominately a liberal arts college, Benedictine is well known for its robust College of Business, as well as its unique Center for Values-Driven Leadership. Serving a relatively small student population of around 5,000, Benedictine combines the benefits of an intimate campus setting and close proximity to one of the nation’s largest and most exciting cities.

The quiet residential neighborhoods surrounding the campus are full of apartments, houses, and condos within easy walking or biking distance of the university. Lisle’s Downtown area is close at hand, offering a popular assortment of restaurants and shops along Main Street, and the Morton Arboretum provides excellent opportunities to get outdoors and enjoy the tranquility of nature. Chicago is only a few minutes away as well, allowing you to hop over to the Windy City and take advantage of its endless cultural offerings anytime.
