Student Services

The Office of Student Life supports and complements St. John’s University’s singular mission: to prepare you for personal and professional success through a curriculum that blends academic study, professional training and direct experience in serving others.

The Office also offers student programs and services to help students develop self-confidence and clarify life and career objectives. All students can rely on St. John’s to provide them with the opportunity to assess and understand their own unique skills and strengths – both inside and outside the classroom.

The goal of our administrators is to help students benefit from the opportunities that the University’s environment affords for leadership, risk-taking, confirmation of talents, improvement in interpersonal skills, mentoring, social outreach and, of course, fun.

With this in mind, the Office of Student Life maintains responsibility for the coordination of extracurricular activities; new student orientation; leadership training and values education programs; off-campus housing; dining services; Greek life; student discipline in non-academic affairs; the bookstore; the StormCard ID card system; and the overall supervision of the University Center.
