Academic Rigor
everyday you learn new things that are beneficial plus you have very helpful people here to inform how to achieve your goal and the college experience is challenging but great.
Am enjoying being here
i love it here!!! for the most part, people are very friendly here and i enjoy walking to the brooklyn promenade and lots of places here in the city. they have a gym fitness room down stairs and a swimming pool. . . it's awesome!!!
Tips for prospective students
it's a little expensive but i suggest taking classes all year round to get your credits you need on time and also try taking classes in community colleges.
Great for these types of students
students look for private elite college wiithout the whole ridiculous price, students living near by and looking for community

st. francis college has many great professors who are willing to work with the students in order to understand the material better. staff and other members of the college are very kind, cooperative, helpful and friendly. the college is kept very clean and the location of the building has many restaurants, sight views and much more.
Tips for prospective students
some tips for prospective students would be to join some clubs at the college. joining a club helps one learn, be able to socialize and much more. if one is a student that is struggling in a class there is free tutoring available located in the academic center.
Academic Rigor
the professors teaching the course help the students learn the material and apply to situations. a student will find themselves being taught the material and understanding it thoroughly. one is able to use what they learned and think into a situation. professors challenge students to test how well they actually comprehended the material.
Dorm Life
i do not dorm; however i commute to the college by taking the train.
Food and Dining
i have ordered food from the cafeteria a few times. the food in general was delicious and the prices were decent. the cafeteria is usually crowded. there are also vending machines located around the building.
What to do for fun
on ones free time during a school day there is a lot to do. some things may include going to the library and do some studying/homework with friends or alone. there is also an hour on mondays which is called, "activity period" where no class is in session. during this time, there are events happening all around the school. for example, some clubs may have meetings, some clubs may have events going on of there own, bake/food sales, motivational speakers coming to talk, instrumental playing and much more. the location is nice and a lot of restaurants near by and the promenade to visit.
Bang for the buck
honestly, the tuition amount is very expensive and difficult to pay. but, i believe that i am getting the best education here at st. francis college.
