St. John’s University has sold its Staten Island campus.
The site, which was originally home to Notre Dame College and was consolidated into St. John’s in 1971, will now belong to Wagner College.
Wagner College is located about a quarter mile away from the former St. John’s Staten Island campus.
The college has ensured the property will continue to be used for higher education and community benefit.
St. John’s University President Father Brian Shanley said in a statement: “This agreement reflects a strategic decision that aligns with St. John’s long-term priorities while preserving the educational legacy of the Staten Island campus.”
He went on to say, “We are pleased that Wagner College will carry forward the campus’s tradition of academic excellence and community engagement.”
