Salve Regina University Information

History Salve Regina College was chartered by the State of Rhode Island in 1934. Founded under the sponsorship of the Sisters of Mercy, Salve Regina was established as an independent institution in the Catholic tradition of education, providing higher education to women and men. In 1947 the university acquired Ochre Court and welcomed its first class of 58 students. By a 1991 amendment to the Charter the name was changed to Salve Regina University.

The undergraduate academic programs are based on the liberal arts, offering concentrations in the arts and sciences and in pre-professional and professional programs. The university offers Associate, Baccalaureate, and Master's degrees, the Certificate of Advanced Graduate Study, and the Ph.D. in Humanities.

Salve Regina enrolls 2,300 men and women from 34 states and 17 foreign countries and has over 14,000 alumni and alumnae.
