The Mission of Carlow College, a Catholic liberal arts college, is to involve persons, primarily women, in a process of self-directed, lifelong learning which will free them to think clearly and creatively, to discover and to challenge or affirm cultural and aesthetic values, to respond reverently and sensitively to God and others, and to render competent and compassionate service in personal and professional life.

The campus is nestled on 13-acres in the Oakland section of Pittsburgh, reputed as the educational, medical and cultural heart of the city. Carlow is within walking distance of the University of Pittsburgh and Carnegie Mellon University, and within minutes of Duquesne University, Chatham College, Robert Morris College and Point Park College. Therefore, Carlow students enjoy all the educational and social opportunities this vibrant collection of institutions offers.
