About
We are nestled on a beautiful 600-acre mountaintop vista in Loretto, Pennsylvania, just 90-minutes East of Pittsburgh.
Faith, generosity, respect, discovery, and joy are in our DNA attracting students (like you) with a passion to shape the world. We are the oldest Franciscan university in the nation and like our namesake, St. Francis of Assisi, students discover a path of mission, purpose, and personal values.
High-demand programs are offered in health sciences, business, education, arts, and STEM fields. Our programs combine rigorous, career-directed studies with a focus on personal and professional ethics.
Our students go on to become leaders, visionaries, teachers, and healers in a wide array of professions and industries -- and they carry their Franciscan values with them always. In fact, in a recent survey of our Class of 2020, 90% of graduates feel that Saint Francis University was instrumental in developing their faith and/or values for life after college!
