The suburban campus, situated on 61 acres in southwest Wichita, features a mix of modern and traditional brick buildings centered around Sacred Heart Hall, the university's original 1926 structure. Initially founded as Sacred Heart Junior College, the institution evolved into a four-year college in 1959 and achieved university status in 1998. Newman maintains a strong focus on health sciences and education programs, with nursing and pre-medical tracks serving as primary academic offerings. The university requires all first-year students to live on campus in either Carrocci Hall or Fugate Hall, unless they reside locally with family.
