Housing services
All first-years and most sophomores live in RLCs (Residential Learning Communities) housed in eight of our ten campus residence halls. Each RLC is built around one or two themes, like community service or contemporary world issues. Because the themes are broad, it's easy to find one that matches your interests.
We are committed to leaving the world a better place. We pursue new technology, encourage creativity, engage with our communities, and share an entrepreneurial mindset. Our goal is to help shape the next generation of leaders and global thinkers.

Student Life
Campus life
Our campus is in the heart of Silicon Valley and spans 106 lush acres with world-renowned gardens and state-of-the-art facilities all surrounding our iconic Mission. But our campus is just the beginning of the story.
Santa Clara is located at the southern tip of the San Francisco Bay. We’re adjacent to San Jose, the 10th largest city in the U.S., and just two miles from San Jose International Airport. Did we mention we enjoy nearly 300 days of sunshine a year?

Santa Clara competes in 20 Division I sports and 17 club sports. More than 4,500 students participate in intramurals every year. If you want to play, there’s a team for you at Santa Clara University.

Our student organizations give you the freedom to explore anything you’re interested in, and to create a college experience that’s uniquely yours:
- If student-run media is your thing—writing, reporting, reviewing, publishing—there are lots of groups you might check out, like our campus radio station, the student newspaper, and our annual literary magazine.
- If you like to exercise your body alongside your mind, you can find a recreational club or class that moves at your pace, whether you’re a varsity-level athlete or just a beginner.
- Our Campus Ministry programs offer many opportunities for you to deepen your faith and connect with SCU’s spiritual community.
