Our Lady of the Lake University

OUR LADY OF THE LAKE University (OLLU) provides an education that gives students the tools to reach new heights. Ranked nationally for the upward mobility of its graduates by U.S. News & World Report, OLLU launches students to be leaders in their communities and career fields. With a strong social justice foundation, the overall experience is designed to propel OLLU Saints to positions of power and influence to make the world a better place.

Students get the most out of their investment by doubling or tripling the value of their degree at OLLU. The university has made it easy to complete two majors, or a major and two minors, in just four years. This gives graduates the benefit of at least three career tracks—one in each major and a third from the combined major.

OLLU offers small classes, individualized learning opportunities, and a supportive community. The main residential campus in San Antonio includes French-inspired buildings overlooking peaceful Lake Elmendorf where students enjoy kayaking or walking the lake trail. Additional campus locations in Houston and the Rio Grande Valley serve adult students.

Eighteen athletic teams compete in men’s and women’s basketball, cross country, golf, tennis, track and field, and soccer; women’s softball and volleyball; men’s baseball; and coed cheer, dance, and drumline.
