University, located in Pittsburgh,

Tradition of academic
excellence
As a private, co-educational, Catholic
university located in the heart
of Oakland, Pittsburgh’s Innovation
District, Carlow believes in nurturing
the creativity, diversity, talent and
skills of its students.
Student success is accomplished
through a tradition of academic excellence
coupled with care for each
student as an individual, which
doesn’t end in the classroom or internship.
Commitment to social justice
Founded by the Sisters of Mercy in
1929, Carlow University reflects that
heritage with a strong commitment
to social justice, which is introduced
early in the first year on Mercy Service
Day, a day where Catholic social
teaching is put in action and students
work for nonprofits throughout the
community.
Through such initiatives, Carlow
instills in students and alumni the
desire to become ethical and responsible
leaders committed to a just and
merciful world.
This is a hallmark of a Carlow
education, encouraging students to
demonstrate forward thinking, practice
social responsibility and offer
service that makes a meaningful
impact to the community.
