Thomas More University is located in Crestview Hills, Kentucky, situated in the Greater Cincinnati metropolitan area approximately 10 minutes south of downtown Cincinnati. The private Catholic liberal arts institution, founded in 1921 by the Benedictine Sisters as Villa Madonna College, relocated to its current suburban campus in 1968 and was renamed in honor of Saint Thomas More. The university offers undergraduate and graduate programs across three colleges, with notable strengths in business, education, and nursing, while maintaining small class sizes consistent with its liberal arts mission. Students can reside in traditional residence halls or campus apartments, and the institution competes in NCAA Division III athletics as the Saints, fielding teams in 29 varsity sports.
