Notre Dame de Namur University (NDNU) is a private Catholic university in Belmont, California. It is the third oldest college in California and the first college in the state authorized to grant the baccalaureate degree to women.[2]
In 2021, the university began to transition to only operate as a graduate school.[3] In 2024, the university was in the process of moving to a hybrid online model with its campus being sold to Stanford University.[4]
