made real every single day. Whatever your interests, whatever your goals,
you’ll be given every opportunity to pursue them, with success, at
Holy Family University.

Family of Nazareth, Holy Family University is a comprehensive four-year

Respect
for the individual, the dignity of the human person. Inspired
by the Sisters of the Holy Family of Nazareth who founded the
University, these values are at the very core of our institution.
They are values that are taught here, but even more, they are
values that are lived here. Our concern for moral values and
social justice guides our programs and enriches everything that
we do.
