St. John's University is nearing the end of a yearlong celebration of its sesquicentennial this spring. Visit the 150th Anniversary page for upcoming events or to read more about the institution's history.
St. John's was founded in 1870 by the Congregation of the Mission (Vincentian Fathers). The institution became St. John's University in Brooklyn in 1933. The name changed to St. John's University in 1954 and the institution transitioned from two Brooklyn campuses to a location in Queens between 1955 & 1972. In 1971 St. John's merged with Notre Dame College of Staten Island.
The 150th Anniversary page includes links to a timeline of key institutional milestones and a variety of historical photographs or digital exhibits.
