Carlow University is a private,
liberal arts university in Pittsburgh.
Offering small classes, on-site
and online programs, and generous
financial aid, we provide an
exceptional education within a
compassionate community rooted
in the heritage of the Sisters of
Mercy.
Carlow graduates are in demand
for their entrepreneurial spirit;
creative mindset; ability to manage
change; and their professional
expertise in fields ranging from
nursing, the sciences and perfusion
technology to counseling, education
and forensic accounting.
Carlow’s 13 athletic teams are
known as the Celtics, a reflection of
the university’s Irish heritage and
roots.
Saint Vincent College will offer the
Carlow University four-year, bachelor
of science degree in nursing (BSN)
program on-site at Saint Vincent
beginning in fall 2019.
Students will reside at Saint
Vincent all four years, but for the
final two years will be Carlow
students and will be awarded their
BSN degree by Carlow, whose
2017 graduates had a 100 percent
pass rate on the nursing exam.
