Overview of Cardinal Stritch University

---

Living in Milwaukee during your college years, you’ll have plenty of chances to go into town to see what you can find to keep you busy. This includes the Milwaukee County Zoo and a variety of entertainments and museums.

Stritch University gives credits for dual credit students enrolled in college and high school at the same time. It also offers advanced placement credits for any AP exams you passed, as well as for life experiences for those adult learners who have more behind them than high school.

Because the student population is so small, the student-faculty ratio has also managed to stay small at 8 to 1, a low enough ratio that you should easily be able to discuss any class concerns with your professors. Campus housing (dormitories) are available for you to live in, which means you can avoid spending a fortune on rent and utilities.
