Students Give Thanks

St. Vincent de Paul said, “Charity is the cement which binds Communities to God and persons to one another.”

Here at Niagara University, we are committed to making sure that all students, regardless of their backgrounds, are presented with an opportunity to better themselves at a university that is excellent, Catholic and Vincentian.

One of the primary ways we do this is by granting scholarships and financial aid to current and prospective students - to the tune of more than $44 million annually.

In fact, 99 percent of our incoming students receive some form of financial aid, a direct byproduct of the generosity of our alumni and friends.

They, and we, thank you.
