Admissions

The perfect fit.

Welcome to Saint Joseph’s undergraduate admissions office! Take our virtual tour, then visit us in southern Maine. We’re closer than you think … and offer more than you know.

Small and friendly classes.

Engaged and inspired professors. It’s all here for you. Get lost in a subject … and find your major. Study abroad or intern nearby. You’ve got options. You’ve got help.

Get to know us.

We’re closer than you think — not just to Portland and Boston — but to ideas, knowledge and each other. Meet some of the faculty and students that you will get to know and who will get to know you.

St. Joe's prepares you for life.

Become a better person here, not just a better student. The seeds of lifelong friendships grow here.
