Our Mission

The Catholic Student Center at Washington University is a house of formation and a community of hospitality to students of any or no faith.

Our Vision

Our dream is that every student who encounters the Catholic Student Center Community is known, loved, and cared for. We will walk with them in the way of Christ to deepen their capacity for giving and receiving love and grow into compassionate, courageous leaders.

We want students to go into the world healthier, happier, and holier.
