University Hill is a downtown neighborhood that is the home of Marquette University. Generally this neighborhood is lumped in with “Avenues West”.
Marquette University is a private, coeducational, Jesuit, Roman Catholic university in the United States. Founded by the Society of Jesus in 1881, it is one of 28 member institutions of the Association of Jesuit Colleges and Universities. Accredited by the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools, Marquette University is in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. It currently has a student body of 11,500, making it one of the largest Jesuit universities in the United States, and the largest private university in the state of Wisconsin. The largest college within the university is the Helen Way Klingler College of Arts & Sciences. Athletics programs at Marquette play in the highly competitive Big East Conference.
Marquette has also risen in stature and prestige academically in the past five years, along with increasingly difficult admissions policies. This has culminated in Marquette being ranked 81st in National Universities in U.S. News and World Report’s “America’s Best Colleges 2007.”
