Founded in 1856, Seton Hall University focuses on academic and ethical development in a diverse and collaborative environment, preparing students to be professional and community leaders in a global society. One of the nation’s leading Catholic universities, Seton Hall offers more than 90 majors to develop students in mind, heart, and spirit. SHU promotes Catholic values and a dedication to community service but is open to students of all faiths.
Situated in a suburban setting just 14 miles from Manhattan, SHU is nearby a wide variety of apartments and townhomes available for rent. South Orange and Maplewood housing options are especially convenient to campus but access to the NYC commuter rail opens up more possibilities for those who don’t mind commuting.
Over 130 student organizations, NCAA Division I Pirate athletics, Greek societies, intramurals and club sports, and community service opportunities keep the SHU campus humming. South Orange and Maplewood offer quaint downtown areas as well as convenience to South Mountain Reservation and Turtle Back Zoo. Manhattan is just a short train ride away.

School data provided by
GreatSchools
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
