01What it does

What Association of Jesuit Colleges and Universities does

Mission

To support and promote u.s. Jesuit higher education by facilitating cooperative efforts among, and providing services to, its member institutions; providing a forum for the exchange of experience and information; and representing the work of jesuit higher education at the national and international levels.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

Programs

On its FY2024 return the organization reported starting a significant new program.

In january 2025, ajcu launched the ignatian executive leadership academy (iela), a six-month program designed to develop the practical skills and habits of mind and heart that will support and sustain the next generation of executive leaders in jesuit higher education. The program is designed for executive level leaders and others who are currently serving in supervisory positions (at a level comparable to a dean or higher) in a university or college, most likely but not exclusively at jesuit institutions, and who are discerning their future leadership roles in jesuit higher education.
