The College of St. Scholastica is a Catholic Benedictine institution and the only independent private college in northeastern Minnesota.
The College was founded in 1912 by a group of pioneering Benedictine Sisters who offered college courses to six young women. Today St. Scholastica educates more than 3,250 men and women and has graduated more than 16,000 alumni.
The College is guided by its Mission Statement, its Statement of Purposes, its Diversity Statement and by the Benedictine Values of community, hospitality, respect, stewardship and love of learning.
The 186-acre Duluth campus is set on a ridge overlooking Lake Superior. Campus buildings include: majestic Tower Hall, the Science Center, Our Lady Queen of Peace Chapel, Burns Wellness Commons, the 500-seat Mitchell Auditorium, the College library, St. Scholastica Theatre, Somers residence hall, Cedar, Kerst, and Scanlon apartments, and several smaller residential buildings.
Adjoining the campus are St. Scholastica Monastery, home of the Benedictine Sisters, Westwood senior apartments, and the Benedictine Health Center, which serves the needs of the Duluth area and provides opportunities for practical experience for many of the College's health science and behavioral arts and sciences students.
St. Scholastica is consistently recognized for excellence by U.S. News & World Report magazine. The magazine's 2008 "America's Best Colleges" ranks St. Scholastica in the Top Tier of regional universities in the Midwest. St. Scholastica has been called a "hidden gem" by the Washington Post.
