    About the University

    View Complete University Profile 

    St. Mary’s University, as a Catholic Marianist University, fosters the formation of people in faith and educates leaders for the common good through community, integrated liberal arts and professional education, and academic excellence.

    St. Mary’s University’s mission is deeply rooted in both the Liberal Arts and the Catholic Intellectual Tradition, which informs the five fundamental characteristics of a Marianist education: formation in faith; integral quality education; family spirit; service, justice and peace, and integrity of creation; and adaptation and change. These characteristics are the foundation of a holistic educational experience designed to infuse students’ professional training with an understanding of individual human development, community, the natural world, and God. These, in turn, inspire human vocations, ethical engagement and action, and creativity.

    Students at St. Mary’s experience a nurturing and vibrant community atmosphere that encourages and facilitates civic engagement, undergraduate and graduate research, comprehensive faculty mentoring, and service learning in San Antonio and around the world. That community experience is carried forward and manifested every year in the vocations and service of many alumni, a community of some 36,000 whose goal is to improve the human condition in the world.

    Strategic Plan 

    The University’s strategic plan, Gateway: A Vision for St. Mary’s University, was launched in April 2013, soon after President Tom Mengler took office in Summer 2012. The term Gateway signifies an entry point, a beginning, and a pathway to a more significant stage. Gateway symbolizes and reaffirms the enduring role of St. Mary’s integrating the liberal arts with professional preparation for students to lead purposeful lives. Gateway conveys an image of students arriving at St. Mary’s on individual paths but joining a global family collaborating on behalf of the common good in service to God. Finally, Gateway evokes a dynamic vision, a strategic plan for a more vital and integrated role for St. Mary’s as a partner in the future of San Antonio and the region. 

    St. Mary’s University emphasizes recruiting and retaining top students, strengthening and promoting the Catholic and Marianist tradition, advancing the academic mission, increasing fundraising, strategically allocating resources through excellent stewardship, increasing financial and capital funding, and graduating ethical leaders who are highly sought after in the workplace after graduation. 

    St. Mary’s just completed a $165 million comprehensive campaign — a fundraising campaign 10 times greater than any prior St. Mary’s University campaign and larger than all previous campaigns combined. In 2017, St. Mary’s publicly announced its Defining Moment Comprehensive Campaign that began in 2012 with a goal of reaching $130 million. After surpassing that amount in 2019, St. Mary’s extended the goal to $150 million. The campaign ended in December 2021 having exceeded its goal by raising $165 million. The campaign funded 14 new academic positions, 94 new endowed scholarships, and $58.8 million in increased scholarship funding. It also provided $5.2 million in funding for Catholic mission initiatives and to establish the Center for Catholic Studies.

    Living in the Area

    San Antonio is the seventh-largest city in the United States and the second-largest city in Texas, with a population of more than 1.3 million. Located in the south-central part of Texas, the city serves as the seat of Bexar County. 

    The jewel of the city is the River Walk, which runs through the downtown area. Lined with numerous shops, restaurants, and attractions, the River Walk is transformed into an impressive festival of lights during the Christmas and New Year holidays.  Sounds of folklórico and flamenco music can be enjoyed, particularly during celebrations, such as the Fiesta Noche del Rio. The Alamo, located nearby, is Texas’s top tourist attraction, while the River Walk is the second most visited attraction. SeaWorld, located 16 miles west of downtown, is the number three attraction. San Antonio is world-famous for its Mexican, Tex-Mex, and cosmopolitan cuisines at fine restaurants throughout the city. The San Antonio Missions National Historical Park was recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2015.  

    San Antonio celebrates its rich heritage with vibrant parades, food-centric events, and lively, local entertainment. We collect medals to show off our San Antonio pride. What started in 1891 to honor the heroes from the Battle of the Alamo has transformed into a city-wide party with a purpose called Fiesta. The St. Mary’s Alumni Association hosts one of the largest Fiesta events on the University campus every spring, called The Fiesta Oyster Bake, which is more than 100 years old and raises funds for scholarships for St. Mary’s students. 

    San Antonio has a strong military presence. It is home to Joint Base San Antonio, including Fort Sam Houston, Lackland Air Force Base, and Randolph Air Force Base, with Camp Bullis just outside the city. San Antonio is home to five Fortune 500 companies; the South Texas Medical Center, the premier medical research and care provider in the South Texas region; and the San Antonio Military Medical Center, the largest inpatient medical facility of the Department of Defense.
