    Tips for prospective students

    This college is a little pricey, but defiently worth it. With no more then 20 students in a classroom, you can really pay attention and create a bond with all your professors and not just be a face in the crowd!
    Great for these types of students

    If you need to take the train it's right down the block! If you love to go shopping in your spare time, the train will take you to the city in 10 minutes. If you love professors who love what they do, this is the college for you!

    Will enjoy being here

    The college is in the middle of everything. You have the subway right next to you. Manhattan is just one stop away. There are resturants all around the place. There are great people to be with and great hangout spots.
    Tips for prospective students

    The school is beautiful. The first time I saw it I feel in love with it and knew this is where I was going to go. There are securitys everywhere for you to feel safe. The deans and everybody is so friendly and respectful towards you.
    Great for these types of students

    St Francis College is a great college for students wanting to go to a cheap private school. If you love the city this is a great school. Brooklyn heights is close to Manhattan. If you are looking for a fresh start this is the way to go. New friends and new experiences.

    Am learning a lot

    St. Francis College is a great learning environment. It is honestly one of the greater schools that is not CUNY in the state of New York. I can say to the fullest extent that in my short time here I have learned so much not only academically but about myself as well and I wouldn't change it for the world.
    Am enjoying being here

    I am more than definitely enjoying myself in St. Francis for a numerous amount of reasons. First and foremost are the people who attend this college. Most of the people you will meet here are genuinely nice and tend to let you know them very easy. The second thing is that despite how it may sound the work load is actually quite light. Finally there are many great places and opportunities around and in the school itself.
    Bang for the buck

    To be honest what they do offer isn't really worth all the money that you pay for it. However its not due to the fact that the education or social aspects are bad it is simply because the tuition is massively high. for 18,000 plus dollars its a bit pricey but if you can afford it I say go for it especially if you can get lots of scholarships or a student loan.
    Tips for prospective students

    If I would have to give any advice to new students. It would be this, make sure to keep your grades up as a default and more or less get as many scholarships as you can and make sure you keep them cause your gonna need them.
    Great for these types of students

    Honestly St. Francis has a very wide variety of class styles to fit just about any student type you could imagine. But if I have to say a specific one it would have to be for the arts community style student. From Art History to Broadcast they have every form of art imaginable.

    St. Francis College motto is the small college for big dreams, however this these dreams can be costly. Most of the professors are great, and others shouldn't be able to teach. The area where the college is located is great and the college itself has a great atmosphere.
    Tips for prospective students

    Make sure you take up to 18 credits your first semester, so you wont have the same problem i have. You want to graduate on time so do as i say, not as i do.
    Academic Rigor

    For Biology and Chem majors, The courses required are challenging and the professors want the best.
    Dorm Life

    If you live an hour or two away from school do not dorm. It's too expensive.
    Food and Dining

    Food is alright, a little expensive though. They sell breakfast and lunch, and the cafeteria closes around 6pm
    What to do for fun

    Go the gym to workout, play basketball during activity hour, go to the computer lab, or go study if you consider it fun.
    Bang for the buck

    It's a good college overall with many places to visit. Movie theatre is a few blocks away; promenade is also a few blocks away with a great view of NYC. There is also Fulton mall, which is an outside mall with many clothing stores.
    Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

    I've heard there is a worshiping room for Muslims, but i am not sure of it's location in the campus or it's aesthetics.
    Great for these types of students

    If you like Basketball, golf, soccer, or even water polo (just to name a few) and you're strong in these sports, then you have a great opportunity to join these particular sports.
    Clubs and Activities

    There are many clubs. I, for one, am in the Pre med club for students who are biology and chem majors, or for people who just want to become doctors, nurses, or pursue any type of medical career.
    Greek Life

    I do not know of this lifestyle.
    Campus Safety

    There are security guards, however no metal detectors, so it could get dangerous. Since I've been there, so far nothing dangerous has happened.
