Katelyn

Honestly, the dedication of the staff is the most unique aspect of the university in my opinion. They are always available whether it be through e-mail or telephone. Since it's a smaller school, there are smaller classes which gives professors the opportunity to spend more time individually with the students. Also, there's always something going on for students to do, whether it be a club meeting, sports event, movie night, etc. This is helpful because it gives students more structure which keeps illegal activities from occurring as often.

The University of St. Francis is unique because it offers exellent communication services to its students which is especially important since I am an online student. I never have to wait long, whether by phone call or email, for an answer to my question and everyone is very friendly and willing to answer your questions. It has never been a confusing or overwhelming experience for me.

I chose this school because of the ability to classes online to complete my bachelor's degree. This university offered a cohort with my local junior college which will make things very convenient for me.

Jacqueline

USF is in one of the most progressive and growing communities in America. Joliet is coming up to standard as far as housing, employment and social venues. It experienced a surge in it's population, coupled with the extension of the new I-355 freeway, it is really a nice place to live now. It's small enough to not feel overcrowded, but close enough to Chicago to enjoy it's amenities. USF is in the process of building it's campus and adding new programs and areas of study. It's an exciting time to be at USF.
