About

Saint Norbert College is a private Catholic liberal arts institution nestled along the Fox River, best known for being the world's only higher education institution rooted in the Norbertine tradition, which emphasizes community, hospitality, and servant leadership. Academically, the college is recognized for strong programs in business administration, education, natural sciences (bolstered by a partnership with the Medical College of Wisconsin), and pre-law. Campus culture revolves around close faculty-student mentorship, a vibrant residential community where nearly all students live on campus, and active traditions in NCAA Division III athletics. A defining characteristic is its commitment to the Norbertine concept of *communio*, paired with unique initiatives like the Cassandra Voss Center, which champions gender equity and social justice.
