Shorelight Education works with top-tier universities to expand options for students seeking next-generation higher education and create signature student experiences that begin before they ever set foot on campus. It is delighted to welcome the University of the Pacific as the newest university partner, enabling it to connect international students with an exceptional liberal arts university in California.

University of the Pacific was established July 10, 1851, as California's first chartered institution of higher learning. It was founded by pioneering Methodist ministers and remains the only Methodist-related university in California. Originally located in Santa Clara, the university later moved to San Jose and, in 1924, moved to Stockton, making it the first private four-year university in the Central Valley. It is a nationally ranked university with three distinct campuses united under one common goal to educate and prepare the leaders of tomorrow through intensive academic study, experiential learning, and service to the community. The university offers more than 80 undergraduate areas of study in 11 schools and colleges, more than 30 graduate and professional programs and 12 accelerated programs.
