Location

The choice of New Haven as the site of the Albertus Magnus College main campus is in harmony with the goals and ideals of the institution. A cosmopolitan city with a continuing tradition as a national educational and cultural center, New Haven, located halfway between New York and Boston, has in recent decades added to its already distinguished reputation by notable new developments in many fields. Its programs in urban and regional planning, in social action, and in healthcare have attracted wide and favorable notice. Long a center of arts and letters, the city has always offered a variety of opportunities in these fields.

New Haven is a college town, and much activity is planned for the benefit of the students from all of the five area colleges and universities. Lectures and musical performances presented by well-known figures as well as a variety of college sporting events draw large audiences. The city has some of the finest theaters in the country, including the award-winning Long Wharf and Yale Repertory theaters. The Yale Art Gallery, the Yale Center for British Art (which houses the largest collection of British art, rare books and sculpture outside Great Britain), museums, and movie theaters are equally accessible.
