The University of St. Francis is a small liberal arts university. It has a fun, warm, nurturing environment. The campus has a real family feel to it and there is always plenty to do on and around campus. If you are the kind of student who enjoys learning in a personalized environment this is the school for you. The class sizes are small and the professors are extremely knowledgeable in their discipline. They are always available to help you and are genuinely concerned with helping you succeed.

The type of student that should attend the University of St. Francis is one that wants their money's worth; they are willing to pay more for the type of education that enables them to both learn and understand their subject matter rather than fall behind. They are not seen as just a number, rather an individual who with enough perseverance can excel academically and in their chosen career.

Any type of person would love St.Francis. We are a small school, so we can all get to know each other. We learn Franciscan values, but just because you are not catholic it doesn't mean you won't like the school.

Aaron

Anyone who feels they would benefit from teachers who really are invested in their students so that they may become better individuals should attend.

Anyone who wants a strong caring environment like this as well as receiving a great education should consider St. Francis

Deannna

A kind enthusiastic person would attend this school. You have to be driven and focused to attend this school as well. This school is not for everyone because they do ask a lot of you. They tell you how it is. You will be busy and you will have to be focused or you will not make it. I like it because they do not surprise you with huge assignemnts and expectations. The students already know what to expect.

Ginger

In adherence to the USF’s values of respect, service, integrity and compassion—a USF nursing student models these values. The hands of 38 University of St. Francis nursing students were blessed during a ceremony marking the beginning of the students’ clinical rotations. Students are expected to provide the best care possible, we ask God’s blessing of the hands to help us achieve this. The hand blessing ceremony is important to me as a nursing student because our hands will be reaching out to those in need, literally and holistically. USF is a Catholic Franciscan University.

Sara

Anyone. This school is great with making anyone feel like they belong. There's no excessive drinkers or partiers here though, so I doubt some party harty's would like it here. That doesn't mean that there is no drinking at all, because every campus will have that, whether they have strict NO NO rules about it or not, it's just a reality.

Dara

People who live close to St. Francis/Joliet, IL area should attend this school.
