SBU a 'best value' in the North

That professor who gets your fascination. That classmate who shares your love of science. That excitement of going to your first Division I basketball game with hundreds of your friends. That promise of extraordinary opportunities after graduation.
That's the power of a Bonnie, and that's why
St. Bonaventure University students are becoming extraordinary.
A survey of members of the class of 2016 found that
94 percent were employed full time or in graduate school within six months after graduation. It's a remarkable statistic in this age of economic uncertainty and a very competitive job market.

These graduates and other young alumni are quick to say why St. Bonaventure has given them a competitive edge: quality academics, caring professors, a close-knit campus community, a Franciscan tradition that values honesty, diversity and service to others, and a loyal alumni base that opens doors the world over. In the same class of 2016 survey,
92 percent said if they had to choose again, they'd still choose St. Bonaventure.
Our graduates call it "The Bonaventure Advantage."
U.S. News and World Report calls us the
fifth-best college value in the North for regional universities and the
No. 2 value in New York state.
That's the Power of a Bonnie!
