Saint Francis University’s 600-acre campus sits atop a gorgeous mountaintop in Loretto, Pa. (near Pittsburgh). We’re one of the oldest Catholic universities in the country, and the oldest dedicated to Franciscan values. Our students go on to become accountants, biologists, business owners, chemists, doctors, environmental engineers, lawyers, nurses, occupational therapists, physician assistants, and physical therapists to name just a few--and they carry their Franciscan values with them. Become that Someone Our university rallying call “become that someone” speaks to our Catholic-Franciscan mission to help students grow into compassionate, caring, successful professionals. The values of generosity, respect, discovery, and joy run deep in our culture, and the university attracts students with a devotion to shape the world.
