Where we strive to develop each student as a whole person—not just in the academic sense, but socially, emotionally and spiritually. As Colorado’s only Jesuit, Catholic university, students of all backgrounds and faiths find a home here and are bonded together by the common purpose of creating a better world. Every aspect of the Regis experience emphasizes the importance of critical thinking, achieving a global perspective and standing up for those who do not have a voice. At the same time, the Regis community also knows how to have fun. Located between the thriving Denver metropolis and the magnificent
Rocky Mountains, Regis offers students the best of Colorado living—whether that’s bustling city life, arts and culture, or easy access to some of the best hiking, skiing, camping and wilderness adventure right in our backyard. Our small class sizes, low student-to-faculty ratio and strong focus on a well-rounded liberal arts curriculum guarantees students aren’t just another face in the crowd, but a new voice in our community. Our faculty don’t just give lectures—they are scholars in every sense of the word, and serve as mentors to our students. Take a look and see for yourself how Regis can help your students on their road to success.
