Gannon University is a private (Roman Catholic), comprehensive university offering associate's, bachelor's, and master's degrees and certificates.

We are located on the bayfront in Erie, Pennsylvania's fourth largest city and one of the busiest ports on the Great Lakes. Positioned directly in the heart of Downtown Erie, Gannon is in the midst of a geographical triangle putting its students just a short distance from larger metropolitan areas. Cities such as Cleveland, Ohio; Buffalo, New York; and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania are all within two hours' driving time from Erie, as is the Canadian border.

Gannon University is a coeducational institution with more than 3,400 students enrolled full and part-time.

We provide a caring environment which fosters inclusiveness and cultural diversity. Gannon's outstanding, values-based education combines the liberal arts with professional specializations to prepare students for leadership roles in their careers, society, and church.

A range of campus organizations and activities encourages academic interests, community service, and moral and spiritual growth. Gannon also provides students with a broad program in intramural and intercollegiate athletics, including 18 athletic programs for men and women at the NCAA Division II level.

Our location in Erie enables students to easily find internships and co-op jobs with federal, state and local government agencies, accounting, law, and marketing firms, hospitals, industrial and insurance companies, and museums.

The Gannon Campus is also in close proximity to Presque Isle State Park. A popular tourist attraction, Presque Isle includes seven miles of beaches, lagoons, hiking trails and biking and jogging paths. Presque Isle Bay, which leads into Lake Erie, is located six blocks from Gannon.

Gannon's unique location and facilities create a special atmosphere conducive to learning, scholarship, research, service, and personal growth.
