According to the school, Holy Names University students, faculty, and staff form a learning community that promotes intellectual and professional excellence by fostering the capacity to think critically, communicate clearly, understand the resources and interconnections of knowledge, and appreciate ethical and cultural issues. Committed to the vision of the Holy Names Sisters, the University educates students from a diversity of cultures, religions, and backgrounds including those traditionally under-represented in higher education. All programs prepare students for lifelong professional and personal growth. The campus invites students from all religious traditions to integrate their relationships with God into their total educational experience.
