The University of Saint Francis has an excellent concern for student achievement. Academic advisors keep in contact with students throughout the semester to promote open communication and answer any questions or concerns. The university does a great job of maintaining a high four year retention and graduation rate as well.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Contact your advisor, and professor with any questions or concerns, they are very willing to help. It is very important to stay on top of homework, it can get out of control fast otherwise. Studying in groups is a great way to make sure you fully understand the information; just make sure you don't get off subject. Stick to the study guide and class notes.

Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?

The University of Saint Francis has very esteemed academic success in the community. Many nursing students are hired because of there superior critical thinking skills and their ability to adapt to all situations.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

To be honest, I lived off campus during my time at the University of Saint Francis. I have however visited friends in the dorm and my experience was great. Plus, you can't go wrong with A/C and a suite like apartment.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

There are several different dining options all of which are delicious. you can eat in the cafeteria where the menus are scrumptious, or there is the computer lounge which has a sandwich bar and excellent walking tacos. Or if you aren't in the mood for those options there is always the bagel shop or Subway is right on campus as well.

What’s there to do for fun at your college?

The Student Activity Council is always hosting events such as gas card bingo, lunch on the lawn, community service events and movie night to name a few. If those options don't sound appealing you could join one of the many clubs on campus or start one of your own. Plus, there is the game room, the big screen tv with a Wii and playstation all free to use whenever your heart feels pleases.

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

The University of Saint Francis tuition rate is very comparable to many other private universities in the area. The difference is the education you receive. The University of Saint Francis has a high retention and graduation rate with many students finding jobs in their field of study within a year of graduation. Not all schools can boast this information.

How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?

Secure! I have never once felt unsafe at the University of Saint Francis. Campus security patrols the area hourly and there are emergency call boxes located all around campus and the dorms, including parking lots. The university also has the added benefit of being located right across the street from a fire station so in the case of an emergency, help is literally right around the corner!
