School Description
Provided by Seton Hall UniversitySeton Hall University holds a unique place among American Catholic institutions of higher learning. Founded in 1856 by the first Bishop of Newark, James Roosevelt Bayley, it is the oldest Roman Catholic diocesan university in the United States and one of the largest.
Seton Hall is a major Catholic university. In a diverse and a collaborative environment it focuses on academic excellence and ethical development. Seton Hall students are prepared to be leaders in their professional and community lives in a global society and are challenged by outstanding faculty, an evolving technologically advanced setting and values-centered curricula.

The Catholicity of Seton Hall is a call to action and a commitment to building a life that is both faithful to the past - and open to the future.
Seton Hall's 58-acre campus is located in the quaint town of South Orange, New Jersey, only 14 miles from Manhattan. The University is home to eight schools, over 60 majors and about 10,000 students.
While Seton Hall enjoys a big reputation, our campus community is also close-knit and inclusive. Students, faculty and staff come from around the world, bringing with them a kaleidoscope of experiences and perspectives, creating a diverse yet unified campus environment.

History
Early history
Like many Catholic universities in the United States, Seton Hall arose out of the Plenary Council of American Bishops, held in Baltimore, Maryland in 1844, with the goal of bringing Catholicism to higher education in order to help propagate the faith. The Diocese of Newark had been established by Pope Pius IX in 1853, just three years before the founding of the college, and it necessitated an institution for higher learning. Seton Hall College was formally founded on September 1, 1856 by Archdiocese of Newark Bishop James Roosevelt Bayley, a cousin of President Theodore Roosevelt. Bishop Bayley named the institution after his aunt, Mother Elizabeth Ann Seton, who was the first American-born Catholic saint.

College Advice |
Question: Which school is better for a major in biochemistry, Drew University or Seton Hall University?Which school is better for a major in biochem, drew or seton hall university? im really stuck between both of them, im leaning towards seton hall but so many people are telling me that drew i a better school, but ive been hearing that they're best in pyschology and arts, help!9 months ago
Best AnswerDrew is a good school for the arts and political science. I do not recommend attending for the sciences. Honestly, I did not enjoy my time at Drew. The teachers didn't seem interested and enthusiastic about their subjects no matter what they taught. I would assume Seton Hall would be much better although maybe ranked lower... |
Question: Admission into Seton Hall University?I am a high school junior right now. i got my SAT scores: 1650. verbal-540, math-510 and writing-600. i wanna know if these scores are enough to get into Seton Hall University and if i can put in my application now. i mean, is there a deadline for a junior to place their application?11 months ago
Best AnswerYes, your scores are good enough to get in, as long as your GPA is comparable at a 3.0 ish. But no, you likely cannot apply now because there are different versions of college applications every year. The 2009 version of the common application should come out July 1, but most individual college applications are available online by the beginning of August. |
Question: How is Seton Hall University?I was just accepted. Wondering what you thinik12 months ago
Best AnswerVery good and prestigious university. Congratulations on your acceptance. Enjoy yourself and definitely get involved in the college life. You will have a ball and learn a lot. |
Question: What GPA and SAT score is required to get into Seton hall university?What GPA and SAT score is required to get into Seton hall university22 months ago
Best AnswerCheck out: http://collegesearch.collegeboard.com/search/CollegeDetail.jsp?collegeId=2845&type=qfs&skey=seton Unfortunately GPA is not reported. Thanks Bill |
Question: How is Seton Hall University student life? What is it like, and is it a good school?I an a frist year at SCSU and i am looking to transfer. I am doing business and German. Here at SCSU i have a G.P.A of 3.79, and a high school G.P.A of 3.69 What do you think? Thanks35 months ago
Best AnswerSorry, which school are you attending now? Southern CT State U? Seton Hall isn't a super competitive university. I'd say it's maybe a bit more competitive than your current school. I think you stand a realistic chance of getting in. Why are you thinking of transferring? What draws you to Seton Hall? Which other schools are you considering? Seton Hall's student life seems very much tied to its sports teams. People there seem to be really into college basketball and things like that. One man at work here went to Seton Hall and loved it. Most of the students are from NY/NJ. It's kind of a commuter school, with only about half the students living on campus, and people tell me the campus is kind of dead on weekends. With your grades, depending on your SAT scores and etc., you may be able to get accepted to higher level schools than Seton Hall. So if you're looking at Seton Hall, you may also want to consider: Fordham Rutgers U Delaware St. John's Syracuse Drew University |
