LINDENWOODUNIVERSITY
The Lindenwood experience is what separates Lindenwood graduates from the rest of the pack. It’s what we call “real experience and real success.” Top-notch academics, hands-on learning experiences, and internships in every discipline that will set you apart and help you get not just a job but the job.
The Lindenwood University System includes a residential campus in St. Charles, MO., as well as a full range of graduate, evening, and
online programs.
With Lindenwood graduates gaining such a meaningful edge, it’s no surprise that
students come here to learn from all over the world. We believe in the importance of diversity as a means to enrich our campus,
our understanding, and our lives.

EXCEL ON THE FIELD AND IN THE CLASSROOMAdjacent to Hunter Stadium, the Student-Athlete Center provides our Lions with everything they need to succeed on the field and in the classroom. In three stories and 43,000 square feet, the Student-Athlete Center houses a long list of resources, including an Academic Success Center to support academic endeavors.
Lindenwood University has one of the largest athletic programs in the United States, competing in NCAA Division II and a variety of other conferences and divisions. We believe the athletic field is one of many stages on which our students display the perseverance, values, and work ethic that we teach here. When our athletes graduate, the education they receive at Lindenwood helps them to continue enjoying incredible successes, whether as professionals on athletic fields or professionals in their fields of study. Lindenwood Lions proudly don the black and gold and have even gone on to win Olympic gold. Now, that’s real.
