Why Dominican?
Because we're accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges and ranked by the U.S. News & World Report in the top tier of Regional Universities (West).
Because our unique combination of small classes, personalized education, 12:1 student-faculty ratio, and proximity to San Francisco will give you an unparalleled academic and life experience.
Because an education here is more than just picking a major and going to class. We pay attention to you, your values, and the way you learn.
Because your graduation is guaranteed. We offer this academic guarantee: Any student who carries a full course load and meets the requirements for eight consecutive semesters will graduate in four years or spend a fifth year at Dominican tuition free.
