For 175 years, Pacific University has been a cornerstone of our communities in Oregon. From our earliest days as an orphan school to our modern incarnation as a private, nonprofit university, Pacific has committed to providing access and opportunity that uplifts individuals, families and communities.
Today, as the only comprehensive university in Washington County, Oregon, we serve a diverse student body with undergraduate, graduate and professional programs across the arts and sciences, business, education, and healthcare.
Students choose Pacific for our caring, inclusive and empowering learning environment, and alumni carry the Boxer Spirit forward as they pursue their purpose in the world. Pacific University Boxers are educators and caregivers, creators and performers, innovators and entrepreneurs, public servants and community leaders.
At Pacific, we always have — and always will — uphold those who uplift others.
