- Founded in 1960 as a two-year branch of the College of William and Mary, CNU became independent in 1977 and gained university status in 1991. Today, CNU is the youngest comprehensive university in the Commonwealth.
- Our primary emphasis is to provide outstanding undergraduate education. We also serve the Commonwealth with Master's degree programs that provide intellectual and professional development for graduate level students.
- Christopher Newport University is a dynamic, thriving institution where you’ll find the best of all worlds: the dedicated professors and small classes that are the hallmark of a private liberal arts education, the low costs of a public university, and magnificent facilities that few institutions can rival.
- Undergraduate and graduate programs at CNU include more than 80 academic majors and programs, ranging from accounting to theater arts, management to social work. Our 4,800 students come from every region in Virginia, 32 other states, and several foreign nations.
- CNU is located in Newport News, Virginia, near some of the nation’s most significant historic sites and some of its best beaches!. Here on our 260-acre campus, you’ll find boundless energy and state-of-the-art buildings—including new residence halls and apartments and an arts center designed by the firm of internationally renowned architect I.M. Pei.
