Founded in 1851, Santa Clara University is the oldest operating higher learning institution in California, and occupies a site first settled by Spanish missionaries in the 1700s. The historic university has earned a reputation as one of the top institutions on the West Coast, and one of the key members of the Bay Area’s prestigious academic community. In addition to rigorous academics, SCU upholds the values of its Jesuit affiliation by promoting campus ministry and community outreach among the student body.
Santa Clara University enjoys a terrific location in Silicon Valley, with the region’s wealth of resources and attractions easily within reach. Neighboring San Jose International Airport, most of the area surrounding the campus is residential, with many apartments, condos, and rental houses just a short walk away.
Downtown San Jose is only four miles away, allowing you to easily take advantage of the area’s best dining, nightlife, and entertainment. 49ers games at Levis Stadium are also close at hand, and the countless parks and nature preserves of the area offer terrific opportunities to spend time outdoors.

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.
