Serving the Kansas City area since 1910, Rockhurst University is a prestigious Jesuit institution roughly ten minutes south of Downtown. A small school enrolling only about 3,000 students, Rockhurst holds a proud reputation as one of the top-ranked regional universities in the Midwest and one of the best colleges in the state. True to its Jesuit roots, Rockhurst places a heavy emphasis on leadership and service among its students in addition to traditional core curriculum.
Living near the Rockhurst University campus puts you in the heart of Kansas City’s cultural district—the Kansas City Repertory Theatre, Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art, and Kauffman Legacy Park are practically right next door. The popular shopping, dining, and nightlife districts of Old Westport and the Plaza Area are only a few blocks away, and most of the city’s other major attractions can be reached in minutes by car.
