About

Seton Hall University (the "University") is the nation's oldest Diocesan Catholic University. In a diverse and collaborative environment, it focuses on academic, ethical, and spiritual development. Seton Hall students are prepared to be leaders in their professional and community lives in a global society and are challenged by outstanding faculty, a technologically advanced setting, and values-centered curricula. The University is home to nine nationally recognized and accredited schools located on three campuses, all within 15 miles of New York City. Its main campus is in South Orange, New Jersey, its nationally ranked Law School is in Newark, New Jersey, and its Interprofessional Health Sciences ("IHS") campus is in the City of Clifton and the Township of Nutley, New Jersey. Within these ten schools, the professors of Seton Hall educate, shape and develop approximately 6,000 undergraduate and 3,600 graduate students, who are enrolled in more than 137 rigorous majors. This has led to the University being nationally recognized for academic excellence by the Princeton Review, U.S. News and World Report, and Bloomberg Businessweek. The University remains a pioneer in Catholic education. THE UNIVERSITY HAS A LONG-TERM RELATIONSHIP WITH HACKENSACK MERIDIAN HEALTH AT ITS IHS CAMPUS. THE UNIVERSITY AND HMH WERE PARTNERS IN AN AGREEMENT TO RENOVATE THE IHS PREMISES FOR THE UNIVERSITY'S CON AND SHMS COLLEGES AND THE HACKENSACK MERIDIAN SCHOOL OF MEDICINE (HMSOM). HMH IS LESSOR TO THE LEASE FOR THIS PREMISES (KINGSLAND LEASE) AND THE UNIVERSITY SUBLEASES SPACE FROM HMH. THE UNIVERSITY AND HMH WILL CO-OWN THE IHS CAMPUS WHEN THE KINGSLAND LEASE AND UNIVERSITY'S SUBLEASE EXPIRE. IN ADDITION, THE UNIVERSITY AND HMH MAINTAIN A STRATEGIC ACADEMIC PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT WHEREBY THE UNIVERSITY AND THE HMSOM HAVE AN INTEGRATED CURRICULUM, WITH 25% OF THE SEATS IN EACH CLASS OF THE MD PROGRAM RESERVED FOR UNIVERSITY GRADUATES WHO RESIDE IN NEW JERSEY, PROVIDED THEY MEET THE STANDARDS OF ADMISSION SET BY THE HMSOM, AND THE UNIVERSITY'S CON AND SHMS STUDENTS HAVING BROAD ACCESS TO TRAIN AT HMH HOSPITALS. ROBERT C. GARRETT, REGENT, IS THE CEO AT HMH, AND ALSO ON THE BOARD OF GOVERNORS OF THE HMSOM. THE UNIVERSITY, HMSOM AND HMH ARE STRATEGIC ACADEMIC PARTNERS. NEITHER HMH NOR THE HMSOM ARE CONSIDERED RELATED PARTIES OF THE UNIVERSITY.
