About This School

Albertus Magnus College has an open or accessible admissions process, with an acceptance rate of 59%. The average net price after financial aid is $34,028 per year.

Albertus Magnus College is a private Catholic university in New Haven, Connecticut, United States. It was founded in 1925 by the Dominican Sisters of St. Mary of the Springs. Its campus is in the Prospect Hill neighborhood of New Haven, near the border with Hamden.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: a 46% graduation rate is a real concern and suggests many students struggle to finish, which is worth taking seriously before enrolling. On the positive side, the New Haven location is genuinely valuable — you're in a city with strong internship and networking opportunities — and median debt of $25,000 is relatively manageable against $56,000 in earnings a decade out. Worth considering if you're drawn to a small Catholic liberal arts environment and have a clear plan to stay on track, but ask hard questions about student support during your campus visit.
