Briar Cliff University
Briar Cliff University is a Catholic, Franciscan learning place, where each person’s dignity is appreciated and celebrated, providing a powerful sense of community. It is a place to pursue a private, liberal arts education that shapes more than your résumé — it shapes your character. Throughout the years, Briar Cliff University has remained faithful to both religious and intellectual traditions. This commitment remains as strong today as the day that we were founded in 1930. We are proud to be the only Catholic University in the Diocese of Sioux City. We aim to ensure that Briar Cliff’s mission, vision, and values inform every endeavor.
