What Sets Us Apart
Like the city that surrounds it, USF offers you energy, optimism, and opportunity that you won’t find anywhere else. Our whole community lives by — and lives for — five principles:
Engaged Learning
The USF education is rigorous and personal. We challenge you to aim high — and we help you to get there.
Passion for Justice
True to our Jesuit education, we think that the whole point of a university is to make the world better — more fair, more just, more livable for more people.
San Francisco Advantage
The city of San Francisco offers you nearly unlimited opportunities for learning, research, internships, and jobs.
Equipped to Lead and Succeed
At USF you gain the professional skills and the cultural awareness you need to succeed in your careers and in your life.
Change the World From Here
At USF, “from here” means more than our physical location in the heart of San Francisco. Here is your body, mind, and spirit — and the belief that you really can change the world for the better.
