Elmhurst University is one of the best in the Midwest, according to U.S. News & World Report; and Money and Forbes magazines consistently rank Elmhurst as one of the Midwest’s best values in higher education.

As part of our continuing efforts to build a more equitable and inclusive community, the University recently achieved designation as a Hispanic Serving Institution, or HSI. The designation opens the door to new opportunities to provide our Hispanic and Latino/a students with a successful Elmhurst experience. This in turn will benefit students, families and the University community as a whole.

Founded in 1871, Elmhurst attracts students from across the nation and around the world. In small classes, our students work closely with faculty members who are accomplished scholars and professionals—but above all, they’re dedicated teachers.

On July 1, 2020, we officially changed our name from Elmhurst College to Elmhurst University. The change more accurately reflects Elmhurst’s current educational profile as a comprehensive higher education institution offering undergraduate and graduate programs in the liberal arts and applied sciences, while anticipating opportunities for new programs and partnerships.

Throughout the 2021-2022 academic year, we will be celebrating the 150th anniversary of our founding with exclusive looks back into our history, special events and more.
